Black Zen

Black Zen was created to “remove any social and financial barriers that restrict black and brown communities from discovering the benefits of meditation, and to make all communities feel included and seen in the wellness space.” Through non-religious practices, the founders focused on simply sitting and intentionally quieting the mind for personal growth. The founders aim to re-frame mindsets and eradicate limiting beliefs by guiding people through meditation practices that bring positive changes in their lives.
