About this Event
This event invites healthcare and mental health professionals together for an honest conversation about RECLAIMING THE MIND.
Together, we’ll examine how we can shape a culture of care that nourishes us as individuals while strengthening our ability to support the healing of others, by gaining a deeper understanding of the mind.
Guided by Dr Charanjot Kaur, Counselling Psychologist & Psychotherapist, the conversation will take place on a Manji, a traditional woven daybed that is a place for rest, reflection and collective care, and will unfold through thoughtful questions that invite multiple perspectives and deeper inquiry.
We will begin and end with Simran, a practice of stillness and deep listening, and create space for authentic connection as we step outside familiar narratives towards collective possibility and meaningful action.
This gathering is part of a series beginning at our HQ in Slough that will later move to The Whitworth in Manchester. It aims to engage in honest exchange about what’s working – and what isn’t – within us and the systems we inhabit. Each will take place around Roo Dhissou’s Manji (A String of Love), offering a ground for fellowship, shared progress and collective care.
