How to Grow Our Inner Capacity to Face Racial Ignorance and Relieve Distress

This Free Best of Summit Talk has Expired.

Ruth King discusses how to use mindfulness in the work of addressing issues of race and racism at Mindfulness @Work 2018. Her passion is to bring social equality to the world and to bring mindfulness to racial distress, to invite a deeper conversation beyond conditioning. By going beyond habitual triggers and tension to race and racism, mindfulness allows access to deeper respect for acknowledging interdependence and recognizes connectedness with one another. She offers mindfulness as a technique of navigating the complexity of race and racial tension, by allowing stillness, inner inquiry, compassion, and recognizing impact on one another.
