Thanks Vidya. That was truly awesome. People could do so well if they learned how
to connect to themselves.
Let’s move back to Sydney now and welcome back resilience and mindfulness
specialist, Chibs Okereke who will help us to appreciate how mindfulness can
support us to create a space that allows anger, confusion and shame to express
themselves without us reacting to them. Welcome Chibs!
Using Mindfulness To
Combat Racism
by Chibs Okereke
June 1st 2020 - I went to bed at
11 pm, fell straight asleep, and
woke up just after midnight
with a strange feeling in my
chest. I had never experienced this sensation
before. At first, I thought it might be something I’d
eaten, and then I thought it was perhaps a panic
attack.

I turned to my Mindfulness practice and scanned
through my Rolodex of emotions—It didn’t feel like
dread, fear, anger or sadness, I could not place the
feeling. I tried sitting up, lying on my back, curling
into a ball, putting on a podcast in the background,
walking around my room, watching YouTube. Nothing
would shift it. It reminded me of a bout of food
poisoning I once had where no matter what position I
put myself in, I couldn’t get more than a few seconds
of relief. The sensation in my chest was not pain,
it was a feeling of heaviness. I’m not sure how to
explain it, but at that moment, I would have preferred
pain. I’d been looking after myself, I’d been eating
well and I had gone to bed tired, so it made no sense.
There were a few unsettling things in my life, but
nothing too out of the ordinary.
