Societal Racism and Self-Compassion with Janine Lyman

After moving to the U.S. from growing up in apartheid South Africa, Janine was deeply disturbed to notice implicit racial bias arise inside herself while teaching a college math course. Host John Kinyon guides Janine through the Mediate Your Life map for self-compassion—the Chooser-Evaluator process—to help Janine find empathy and healing for herself and discover a new integration, wholeness, and insight moving forward.   Timestamps:   [0:00:00] Intro [00:04:05] A risky personal story [00:05:00] Challenging assumptions about racism [00:10:11] Racial awareness and transitions [00:13:36] The Chooser-Evaluator framework [00:19:19] Betrayal of Presented Worldview [00:24:15] Inherent value of everybody.
