Description
Addressing racism requires a fundamental shift in how we engage with each other, one that acknowledges the visceral experience of the "race conversation". Psychotherapist Eugene Ellis offers a new approach, one that combines trauma-informed, neurophysiological insights with mindfulness and healing.
This approach is designed to empower individuals to remain present and embodied, rather than constricted by fear, regardless of their racial identity. By exploring the bodily aspects of the race conversation, Ellis provides a framework for more productive and effective dialogue.
Transforming Race Conversations is a valuable resource for therapy practitioners and anyone seeking to engage more effectively in the ongoing dialogue around race. It provides a unique perspective on the need for a paradigm shift in our understanding of race and its impact on our lives.
