bell hooks’ All About Love is one of the best known guides on how to love well. In hooks' view, where we start is often where we get stopped: those moments when we don’t have a shared language for our experience. She writes: "Imagine how much easier it would be for us to learn how to love if we began with a shared definition."

In this practice, we'll explore how definitions help or hinder our ability to attend to the world around us — and we'll talk about the role of collective attention in learning how to love.
