Who we are
Calm Clarity is a social enterprise guided by a vision of an inclusive society where human beings of every skin color, ethnicity, gender, and socioeconomic status are valued and are nurtured to thrive, develop their full potential, and contribute their gifts and talents to the greater good.
To help realize this vision, we share insights from neuroscience and mindfulness to show people how to train and rewire the brain to develop neural networks we refer to as "Brain 3.0" that enable people to more effectively change their inner and outer worlds to live in greater alignment with their core values and aspirations.
To support social change, we use Brain 3.0 to illuminate and address complex social issues (such as unconscious bias, socioeconomic, racial, and gender inequality, and trauma and mental health inequity).
We are especially committed to fostering socioeconomic inclusion. Through our social impact initiatives, we help diverse groups facing financial hardship and adversity develop and strengthen Brain 3.0 so that they can more readily change their lives, realize their potential, and positively impact their community.
This course was made possible by donors and clients who support our initiatives to address systemic inequities.
