Meditation

The Queer Meditation Group provides LGBTQIA+ individuals, with a safe space to engage in an exploratory approach to meditation through gentle body tuning, breath awareness and conscious sitting practice. Each of the facilitators will bring their experiences in Mindfulness, Zen, Vipassana and other forms of meditation. Previous meditation experience is not necessary. The body-mind and the senses are explored as doorways into meditation. The purpose of this exploration is to become more conscious of your Self at many levels. Beginning wherever we are, this approach to meditation has an open goal of harmonizing with the present moment. The focus is on slowing down, unwinding tension and relaxing the nervous system.
