This Pride Month community meditation, open to all queer practitioners and allies alike, is an opportunity to give space to the compassion that, in the view of the Indo-Tibetan contemplative tradition, forms a major part of our true nature. By relaxing deeply into a state of spacious rest, we can allow our compassionate energy to extend itself outwards—first to ourselves as the practitioner, and then beyond us to the communities and beings we are deeply connected to.

The forty-minute session will be divided into two shorter practices, one primarily focused on offering tenderness and compassion for ourselves and one focused on the cultivation of resolute universal compassion that allows us to be persistent in our transformative work aimed at creating a more peaceful, just, and kind world. 

All the proceeds from this session are offered to the Trevor Project in support of endangered LGBTQ+ youth.
