Tea and snacks will be provided.Open to all self-identified people of color. Come as you are, no meditation experience needed!What is Nashville POC Sangha?Sangha is the Pali word for "spiritual community." Nashville POC sangha is a group for self-identified people of color to meditate together and hold space for whatever is coming up in our practice and in our lives. This is an intentional environment for POC to share in a space free from the adaptations of mind, and speech and action that often arise in spaces occupied by the dominant culture. Our intention is to support safety for both the POC in attendance and white bodied people we ask to abstain from attending. Learn more at www.nashvillepocsangha.org.FAQDo I have to be Buddhist?No; topics of discussion are universal, though we may use and explain some Buddhist terminology.What is meditation?Meditation is simply placing the mind on an object of attention. Formal meditation practices promote relaxed concentration and awareness through focusing on the breath or single object, observing the mind, and inclining the mind towards a chosen quality.How will this help me?Meditation and mindfulness can be helpful for calming the mind and nerves, getting familiar and friendly with our own minds, and gaining insight about the way things are. Through this ultimate act of self-care, we can refill our internal fuel tanks and lay the groundwork for taking wise action and relating compassionately with the world and those around us.What defines a person of color?A person of color is someone who does not identify as white. For those that are of racial identities that include white (ie mixed race), we hope you feel welcome here.Can white allies attend?No. While we appreciate the allyship and desire to learn, this space is intended to provide POC individuals an environment that enables expression without the need to accommodate dominant culture. Through this rare opportunity to be in a dedicated affinity group, our deep aspiration is to provide a safe space for internal and external openness for POC, and in doing so we encourage white allies to also find a separate dedicated white affinity group where they too can share openly without fear of offending POC as they continue to learn and unlearn.  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/7874ece0-fa03-11f0-953c-0b4fd2fcffda-rimg-w779-h740-dcdcdcdc-gmir.jpg
