Black Woman In Bloom

How are you doing? That’s the question we’ve been hearing a lot of lately. And we’ve been letting people know that, “We are not okay.” There’s so much going on in the world right now. Tensions are high, and we’re all feeling the weight of it in one way or another. For me, as a Black woman, in the words of Fannie Lou Hamer, “I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired.” I know there are many others who feel the same. What do we do when we feel like this? What can we do to take care of ourselves while also taking action? For many of us we practice self-care which includes leaning on our faith. Research has found that Black women rely on religion and spirituality to cope with many if not all aspects of their lives including navigating issues of race, class and gender oppression. And by doing so we tend to our spiritual wellness. In this episode we’ll: define spiritual wellness, hear some facts about the health benefits of tending to our spiritual wellness, and learn six ways to care for our spirits during difficult times.
