Justin Michael Williams

About the workshop

In the era of #MeToo, The Resistance, Environmental ruin, and #BlackLivesMatter, one has to ask: How do we meditate and calm our minds in the midst of chaos? What does mindfulness have to offer those who encounter injustice daily? How do we actually create a better world for ourselves and the future generations?

Together, we will explore these questions, merging science, mindfulness, movement, music, and art, and begin to chart a new path forward towards beloved community and the embodiment of peace.

About the speaker

Justin Michael Williams is an author, speaker, and top 20 recording artist who is using music and meditation to wake up the world. By working at the intersection of music, mindfulness, and social justice, Justin has become a pioneering millennial voice for diversity and inclusion.

In February 2020, he published his first book titled STAY WOKE: A Meditation Guide for the Rest of Us (Sounds True)—the first title of its kind by a queer, black, millennial author. With practices like “Meditating While Black,” “Stop Porn from F*cking You,” and “I Am Beyoncé”. STAY WOKE applies meditation to a totally new context. Justin is committed to using his voice for change, and his greatest wish is to empower people from all walks of life to wake up to their life’s purpose and accomplish the dreams they once thought were impossible.
