Mindfulness for Recovery with AlmaYEspiritu
This workshop will explore how mindfulness practices can benefit individuals struggling through recovery, whether it be from experiences with addiction (any type) and grief or loss. Those in recovery often experience complex emotions, long-term struggles, isolation or confusion that mindfulness practice can begin to unravel. Learn ways to implement a daily practice for greater resilience and possibility. Guided meditation and mindful exercises will be shared with compassion and kindness.
This collaborative online series designed by AlmaYEspiritu will be led by experts in the field of mindfulness in marginalized communities, such as Latinx, Immigrants, People with Addiction, and Survivors of Suicide Loss and the Bereaved. Together, we will explore how mindfulness practices impact vulnerable groups - and what that means for all of us. The purpose of these sessions is to help develop empathy, compassion, connection, and understanding of what it means to Be vulnerable. Let’s raise awareness beginning with ourselves, and experience mindful ways to feel understood and interconnected. All are welcome as we honor one another during National Hispanic Heritage month!
Led by Charity Collier, Mindfulness & Addiction Specialist and Elaine Ramos-Rodriguez, Grief & Bereavement Specialist
