BPO Wellness Week: Black Women's Collective Care Circle

BPO Wellness Week Presents: Black Women's Collective Care Circle: Working with What is.

Working With What Is: is a deep listening and storytelling space where everyone comes in with what they are holding and where they want to get to. We work with elements of Journaling (awareness of and attention to and honouring thought) , loving kindness meditation (grounding and cultivating space within) , social presencing theatre (getting unstuck) , playback theatre (listening to self and other, spontaneity, creativity , improvisation) and guided visualization (symbols and the unconscious).

Come as you are, bring what you hold : racial trauma, general mental health, relationships, family and cultural expectations, school stress…..as well as, aspiration, goals, dreams , strivings...

The Black women’s Collective Care Circles are psychosocial support groups that run out of the Black Healing Centre—a physical healing space for Black people in Tio’tia:ke (Montreal). The groups focus on deep listening, storytelling and communal care and learning skills with the intention of managing anxiety, depression and trauma in the body.

*Please note that this event is being hosted for Concordia's Black student population. Thank you for your understanding and Solidarity.
