The Softening the Armor8-Week Program is the central transformational offering within Lifted Conversations. This program provides a structured, somatic, and cannabis-integrated healing experience designed specifically for Black and Brown men (ages 21+). Through weekly 90-minute small-group sessions (5–12 participants), participants explore emotional literacy, body-based awareness, intentional cannabis use, and practices that support vulnerability, communication, and relational healing.
Participants do not need prior experience with somatic practices or cannabis mindfulness. Each session builds progressively, offering tools that deepen self-understanding, help interrupt reactive emotional patterns, and cultivate grounded, intentional presence.
Who This Is For
Black and Brown men, 21+.
Men feeling guarded, reactive, overwhelmed, or emotionally disconnected.
Men seeking a culturally resonant healing community.
Men curious about integrating intentional cannabis use into emotional and somatic wellness.
Build emotional literacy and vocabulary. - Understand their personal “loop” of trigger → activation → reaction. - Slow down enough to interrupt old survival responses. - Develop somatic awareness and nervous system regulation. - Explore intentional cannabis use as a grounding and clarifying aid. - Practice vulnerability safely within a supportive community. - Improve communication and relational skills. - Reconnect with parts of themselves they have armored or hidden.
This program serves as both a structured curriculum and a deep relational healing container.
Experience
“This wasn’t just a conversation — it was a nervous system reset.”
