Engaged Mindfulness: Building Capacity for Antiracist Advocacy and Action (Session 2)

In session 2, participants utilize Magee’s text, alongside other mindfulness approaches, to elucidate ways to further understand and engage in mindfulness as a skill for antiracist counseling education and practice. Participants engage in self-of-the-counselor activities to deepen their understanding of their social and cultural positions in relation to this practice, alongside experiential group activities. Embracing the uncomfortable learning that is inherent in this work, mindfulness tools will be utilized throughout the course and required in between sessions to help build capacity and confidence for participants. This workshop is facilitated and cosponsored by Culture Ally and the International Network for Antiracist Teaching in Counseling (NARTIC).
