Tuning Tuesdays
a Black men's discussion and support group. online + in-person.
the ritual
what happens on tuesday.
five movements. clinically grounded, brother-held. a tuning fork for the men who keep showing up — twice a month, on screen and in the room.
opening attunement
we arrive online and in person at once. a brief grounding so the screen doesn't separate us from the breath.
tuning the dial
each man names where he is on the dial — what's loud this week, what's quiet. no fixing yet. just calibration.
check-in circle
one by one, we speak. unmasked, uninterrupted. Melvin and Denzel hold the frame; the brothers hold each other.
clinical lens
Melvin (LCSW) offers a frame from the work — naming the pattern, naming the practice, naming what's possible.
collective tune-up
we close in reflection. what got tuned? what's worth carrying into the week ahead? we leave a little more in pitch with ourselves.
when + where
