This episode begins a series on the four foundations of mindfulness. I explore the word mindfulness and then talk about the first foundation - mindfulness of the body. I discuss how embodied awareness can help us become antiracist. The link for the sutta is here. I read quotes from: My Grandmother’s Hands: Racialized Trauma and the Pathway to Mending Our Hearts and Bodies by Resmaa Menakem and Mindful of Race: Transforming Racism from the Inside Out by Ruth King.
