Meditation for the LGBTQIA+ Community

Gender, Sexuality and Relationship Diversity Group

Meeting every second Saturday of the month from 10 am to midday at the Buddhist Centre.

The group is suitable for GSRD people new to meditation and those with an established meditation practice.

Our use of Gender, Sex and Relationship Diversity (GSRD) reflects our current understanding of marginalised identities, including people on the gender spectrum who might identify as trans, agender, bi-gender, crossdressers, genderqueer, gender fluid, and non-binary. Sexual orientation/identities: including lesbian, gay, bi- and pan-sexual and those on the asexual spectrum. We include people on the aromantic (aro) spectrum, people in multi-partnered relationships as well as those in ‘monogamish’ forms of partnership.

The group is led by GSRD Buddhists offering a supportive space for meditation and an opportunity to connect with other GSRD people. We include guidance on meditation and talks on Buddhist themes and principles.
