Details

Join our inclusive meditation class tailored for the U of R black community, fostering self-discovery and self-care through deep breathing, visualization, and guided meditation. Our experienced instructor, Deontae McLachlan, addresses unique challenges, drawing from personal experiences as a Black individual who has personally benefitted from the practice of mindfulness. Mindfulness has encouraged him to cultivate self-awareness, navigate racial stress, build emotional resilience, and foster connection within my community. Embrace this opportunity to build these skills as well as explore other mental and emotional benefits of meditation, such as reduced anxiety, improved focus, creativity, and better sleep. Prioritize your well-being with the incorporation of valuable resources, including “Stay Woke: A Meditation Guide for the Rest of Us” by Justin Michael Williams and “For Indigenous Minds Only: A Decolonization Handbook” edited by Waziyatawin and Michael Yellow Bird. These resources serve as the foundation for the class, offering insights and techniques to enhance your meditation practice. Together, we’ll celebrate your growth in a nurturing community where your voice and experiences are valued. Open to all students, staff, and faculty.
