About
Devorah Brous
Urban Homesteader | Ritual Facilitator | Multi-Media Artist
@Dev.Brous (she|her) is the Creator of FromSoil2Soul.
My practice, FromSoil2Soul, is dedicated to tending and resourcing people experiencing accumulated grief and / or burnout. For over 20 years, my intersectional approach is based in ancient and emergent wellness practices for soul-care, earth-care, and community-care.
Prior to forming FromSoil2Soul, I served as the founding Executive Director of two mission-driven environmental nonprofits, BUSTAN, and Netiya for a combined 18 years. A bridge-builder with systems-impacted and underinvested communities (indigenous, houseless, and formerly incarcerated people), I bring an undeniable passion for growing community stakeholder engagement through relationship-building.
I have a Mindfulness Teacher Training certificate and for two decades I have led listening circles and trained extensively on non-hierarchical frameworks for culture change that center equity, belonging, and empowerment. Deeply committed to holistic wellness, counter-oppressive organizing, and unsettling, I have trained with indigenous Bedouin; Council; and Non-Violent Communication; and I have served as a facilitator for the Compassionate Listening Project. While I have practiced listening all over the world with groups and teams in conflict zones, perhaps the most urgent is deepening mindful listening practices right here and now. With two Masters degrees in conflict resolution and development studies, I see conflict and grief as dynamic forces to deepen counter-oppressive organizing, solidify communication, and amplify impact.
