Join us in the HEART space Mon-Fri in the month of August as we celebrate LOVE as mindfulness-based practice. Each day you will find a MEDITATION and corresponding JOURNAL PROMPT. But why the mindfulness focus on love?

Love can be understood as the quality of attention we bring to our experience and to one another. When we are present, open, and non-judgmental, that attention naturally carries care. In this sense, love is less about a particular feeling and more about how we relate to our thoughts, emotions, bodies, and the people around us.

Mindfulness strengthens this capacity by training us to notice what is actually happening, rather than reacting on autopilot. As awareness becomes steadier, we’re better able to listen, respond with intention, and meet ourselves and others with understanding. This is why mindfulness and love are closely linked: when attention is present and receptive, care tends to follow.

🎉 National Black Researchers Week continues! 🎉

Your writing is more than a publication requirement... it is part of your legacy. This interactive workshop helps researchers reconnect with the power, purpose, and impact of their words while developing a personal Manuscript Manifesto to guide their writing journey. We’ll talk authorship, visibility, citation politics, and why citing Black researchers matters.

Meet tonight's speaker: Chioma Nnaji, MPH, MEd. She is a public health leader, facilitator, and manuscript coach with more than 25 years of experience at the intersection of public health, racial justice, and immigrant rights. She began her career as a Community Health Worker in the HIV field and advanced into senior leadership roles within community-based organizations and academic institutions.
