We explore what resilience is, and how it is built by attention and intention.  Attention refers to mindful awareness, while Intention refers to making conscious changes.  We discuss how the combination of each influences the habits we cultivate and grow to make the best of our talents, to tolerate uncertainty and ambiguity, to embrace the new, cope with loss, and to experience our own wisdom. We share stories from our own experiences that have given us resilience.

"Media outlets across the country have been filled with coverage of the aftermath of police-action shootings, especially those that have led to the deaths of unarmed African-Americans. Activists have demanded justice for the victims and their families to protect “Black lives,” while others have called for more understanding of police officers who face daily threats to “blue lives.”  Seeing both sides of the issue are Black police officers. They have the unique perspective of being Black Americans who have faced discrimination, while also being sworn officers of the law.” Quoting the Indianapolis Recorder.

Please join Oasis for this timely presentation and conversation.
