Daily healing practices for Black Americans combating systemic racism—transform exhaustion into renewal, resistance, and lasting joy!

Black Americans are exhausted. The relentless burden of navigating racism—at work, in healthcare, in daily life—takes a devastating toll. You're tired of being strong, tired of code-switching, tired of carrying emotional weight that isn't yours to bear. The question isn't whether Black fatigue is real. The question is: what do you do about it?

This book provides the answer. Mary-Frances Winters and Mareisha N. Winters Reese offer over fifty culturally grounded practices designed specifically for Black healing. It's a practical roadmap covering body, mind, and spirit renewal:

  • Reclaim boundaries without guilt
  • Build your healing village
  • Navigate toxic workplaces while protecting your peace
  • Transform pain into powerful action.

This guide includes daily breathwork, somatic practices for release, boundary-setting frameworks, relationship mapping tools, workplace microaggression trackers, and thirty-day joy challenges. Each practice is rooted in Black cultural traditions and designed to fit into your real life. Whether you need immediate relief or long-term transformation, this book meets you where you are.

Your healing begins here.
