7:00 pm to 9:00 pm

With Mushim & Melvin Escobar

People of color and people of mixed race heritage are subjected to potentially traumatic situations on a daily basis throughout our lives. This 3-class series will offer an understanding of the neuro-physiological science of trauma, plus embodiment practice tools and mindfulness-based skills that can be practiced in class and at home, and a supportive and compassionate community learning and healing space. In this social-justice-based approach, we will affirm that our communities can thrive and grow into healing, well-being, and joy. Talks, meditation, facilitated discussion, progressive relaxation techniques, and trauma-informed Dynamic Mindfulness gentle movement.
