This course is an opportunity to engage in mindful conversation about the feelings and thoughts which arise when faced with talking about racism and inequality.

 

It is designed as a safe space, open to everyone regardless of race, culture or ethnicity.

 

As well as acknowledging and sharing feelings, we will explore how compassion for self and others, and mindfulness practices may be helpful in offering some support, clarity, and a path towards positive change.

 

Through mindfulness-based experiential exercises and reflections, we aim to facilitate a deepening of our understanding of how race and racism may impact our lives, thinking and behaviour.

 

We hope to promote an ability to respond through self-care, compassion for others, and a sense of hope and empowerment.
