A Beginner's Guide for Meditating with Race

Transforming Racism Begins on the Inside

Whether you are a beginner or an advanced practitioner of mindfulness, this guide provides you with a practical way to stay on course and be at ease in your own skin, moment-to-moment, regardless of your circumstances.

A Beginner's Guide for Meditating with Race is an invaluable resource that introduces both newcomers and seasoned practitioners to the art of mindfulness meditation. Often, external hardships related to race and racism can leave us feeling sore, tender, and vulnerable from the habitual ways we have met the rough edges of racial distress, and it can feel overwhelming.

Mindfulness meditation can be our ally in navigating these challenging emotions. With mindfulness, we discover that our distressing thoughts and emotions are not permanent states, but experiences that need our care and attention. With practice, we can develop the resilience to face racial distress with stability, confidence, and grace.

Core to uprooting racial distress is learning to work respectfully with our minds. The path to racial understanding and harmony begins with turning our attention inward.

Meditation does not help us eliminate racial ignorance, anger, or ill will. Rather, it offers a way for us to slow down and investigate our inner experiences with wise care. With practice, we can bear witness to our racial distress and conditioning without distortion, elaboration, or judgment. We can notice, for example, how racial perceptions live, what thoughts we are giving birth to, and how we feel thinking about them. We can acknowledge where we get stuck and discover what supports letting go. With practice, we make better choices in our lives and in our relationships with other races.
