About this Event
Black History Month Meditation - Rest. Remember. Reimagine is an intentional community gathering rooted in meditation, reflection, and collective care.
This evening invites us to slow down together, set shared intentions, and experience the grounding power of presence and belonging. In a world that often asks us to move quickly and carry a lot, this space is an offering to pause — together.
Whether you are new to meditation or have an established practice, you are welcome exactly as you are.
This event is power by Bex Wellness in collaboration and support with Afro Van Connect, Black Space Media Inc and Shambhala Vancouver.

- Opening welcome & community agreements

This is a circle-based experience that centers listening, respect, and shared presence.
Our Intention
- To gather safely, in wholeness
- To recognize ourselves and one another in this moment
- To create a high-visibility space where we are not always seen
- To offer a meaningful experience of belonging
- To encourage connection — we want to meet you, and we want you to meet each other
Together, we rest.
Together, we remember.
Together, we reimagine.
