Description

Ruth King explores a crucial topic seldom addressed in meditation instruction, shedding a compassionate and provocative light into the deeply neglected domain of racism. Mindful of Race offers practical guidance on how to understand and engage with racial tension, and how to cultivate a culture of care to come to a place of greater clarity and compassion. Through her expertise as a meditation teacher and diversity consultant, King invites readers to examine the complexity of racial identity and the dynamics of oppression. She provides guided instructions on how to work with our own role in the story of race, and how to tend to our suffering, listen to its teachings, and direct its energies for change. By exploring key mindfulness tools and practices, King helps readers to identify their "soft spots" of fear and vulnerability, and to heal them. She also shows us how to embrace discomfort, which is a core competency for transformation, and how to return to the natural flow of who we are.
