Emotional Resilience and Accountability for Health and Wellness Practitioners

Please answer the following questions to complete this training.

1. Which of these listed below are some of the nervous system responses white folks sometimes get pulled into when feeling threatened, as mentioned in Module 1? Choose all that are correct. (You cannot click “next” until all correct answers have been selected.)

Numbness: can’t seem to feel, stuck in the head and locked out of the heart, apathy, distancing, might have the vibe of “I’m not like those white people” or “I can’t feel you or your needs.”

Over-intellectualizing, thinking there’s an objectively “right” way

Sense of urgency – hurry!

Inflation: inflated sense of self, defensiveness, prove we’re right/better, lacking in humility, might have the vibe of “Don’t you know who I am!?!”

2. Which of these listed below are some of the ways in which a distorted sense of self can show up, as mentioned in Module 2? Choose all that are correct. (You cannot click “next” until all correct answers have been selected.)

white superiority: our minds and bodies are programmed that whiteness is normal and a bit better

entitlement: I, I, I instead of we, we, we – safety and comfort for self at the expense of others

individualism: I, I, I instead of we, we, we – “I need to prove my worth or I will be rejected.”

3. Which of these are the three parts of your body that make up what Langston Kahn would call your “the truth cord”?

arms, stomach, and feet

gut, heart, and mind

gut, heart, and hands

4. Please choose all that are examples of common racial microaggressions in healthcare settings:

When providers hold low expectations about an individual seemingly due to their racial background or make assumptions about educational attainment, insurance, or finances.

When providers ignore race and culture, or their potential impact on health is not communicated

When an assumption is made about family makeup

5. For Module 3, the focus was on slowing down. Please select the answer that best captures the main take-away:

Slowing down means taking at least 2 hours with each client.

Slowing down is something that works for some people but moving fast is the best way to get things done.

Slowing down, even if for a few minutes, creates space for other cultural norms, feeling into another person, active listening, and not adding more stress to others.

6. Which of these is an example of a core value and conviction with this work?

I am dedicated to emotional resiliency and accountability because I believe the world is a better place with multicultural perspectives and ideas.

I am required to take continuing education classes, which is the only reason I am taking this training.

7. In Module 4, Part 1, it reads “an important aspect of communicating in connection is to shift our sense of self as above and below others towards a more indigenous perspective.” Which type of perspective does this reference?

ego

eco

8. In Module 4, Part 2, which of these are part of the “putting it all together” in communicating in connection? Please choose all that are correct. (You cannot click “next” until all correct answers have been selected.)

Slow down and energetically move back from your first reaction to check your vibe.

Remember your convictions (feel the presence of those jewels in your heart).

Make space to settle into the humble layer of connection, your core self before social conditioning, your sparkle of joy, courage, and feeling loved.

Distinguish aspects of your self (your true self who wants racial healing).

Feel into yourself as part of a flowing ecological circle, remembering we’re all in this together.

Do regular humility checks because the condition of whiteness can distort our sense of being right and superior.

Coming from a place of humility, have the courage to risk upsetting another white person (prioritize racial healing over keeping you or another white person comfortable).

Looking to continue this work? We offer (free!) discussion groups for health and wellness practitioners to process these learnings together. It can sometimes feel like we’re isolated in silos when it comes to doing this kind of deep work, and these groups can be a great way to connect with and learn from others. If you are interested in participating in a free community discussion group with other health and wellness folks, and didn’t already let us know in the quiz, email us at info@apok-ccrf.org to get on our list.

You are done!

Thank you for your participation in this self-paced training, and I hope to see you in a group discussion!
