Commitment to Safety and Inclusivity
Above all, I place my intentions on doing no harm.
This priority includes creating a space of safety and inclusivity and honoring the diverse set of causes and conditions that bring each student to practice.
When appropriate, namely for interactive workshops or by the client’s request, sessions are begun with an Agreement for Multicultural Interactions adapted from the East Bay Meditation Center, which can be found here. These agreements provide a framework for safety and inclusivity.
I am committed to approaching the teacher’s seat with authenticity and cultural competency.
I prioritize a continual deepening of my understanding and growth in culturally responsive practices.
