<p><strong>WE ARE HERE </strong><em><strong>WITH</strong></em><strong> YOU.</strong></p><p>The last few months have been challenging. At each turn, you've been required to adapt quickly, grow faster, show up more, look under the carpet and deal with all your inadequacies—sometimes all at the same time. </p><p>We hear you. The learning curve is steep and sharp, like a hockey stick. Sometimes you wonder if you have the capacity to deal with it all.</p><p></p><blockquote><em>"There’s actually research that shows mindfulness helps </em><a href="https://greatergood.berkeley.edu/article/item/three_ways_mindfulness_can_make_you_less_biased" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"><em>reduce implicit bias</em></a><em>—not just around race or gender, but also around homelessness, age, etc. So, there’s some reason to believe that basic, simple awareness practices can help disrupt that automatic, biased way of thinking. </em><strong><em>This helps us more consciously choose how we engage with one another</em></strong><em>—whether we see ourselves as victims of racism or we’re people trying to minimize harm in the world by working with our privileged status in certain contexts." </em></blockquote><blockquote><strong>— Rhonda Magee, The Inner Work Of Racial Justice</strong></blockquote><p></p><p>We're right here with you.</p><p>With resources.
