Unlearning Internalized Misogyny
In this 2-part LIVE online Zoom webinar, we zero in on how our minds are conditioned by patriarchy to disempower ourselves, become trained “to other”, and keep ourselves small and cut off from our wisdom and authentic self. These oppressive habits, though “normal”, breed chronic stress, self-doubt, anxiety, and depression, and are part of feminism’s unfinished work as we continue to evolve towards gender equality.
Through brief lecture, guided practices, reflections, sharing in break-out groups and discussion, we review the core principles of mindfulness practice, and identify our internalized misogynistic beliefs and behaviors. You will take away specific practices to gain inner stability and freedom from “othering” to build trust in your authentic self. No prior meditation experience is required, this workshop is appropriate for all levels of experience.
Dates TBD
Two Part Workshop, total of 6 hours.
