This Event has been moved to 23rd May 2020

Following the successful day in last November, Bodhi Tree Brighton and MindOut are pleased to host another LGBTQI+ day of meditation and sharing.

Last November, in another world entirely, some of us spent a day together, considering the Rainbow Body. I used a framework from Buddhism called the Four Immeasurable Qualities – Loving Kindness, Compassion, Joy and Equanimity – to explore different ways in which we relate, and block relating, to ourselves in body and in mind.

This day, which we will share online (due to the current suspension of life as we have known it), we will continue this exploration, concentrating more on how we relate to ourselves and others through, and with, our Hearts. I have been amazed how powerful the connections we have been making online over the past four weeks, so long as we have our hearts, our intentions to connect, and each other.

We will do meditation practices relating to body and heart, and share on themes coming from Buddhist and other teachings on what it means to connect to ourselves, and as one person to another; and how we can enhance this vital resource in this time of isolation, fear and anxiety.

As we will all be in our homes, we can go into our kitchens and have lunch, and then return for more practice in the afternoon.

I look forward to seeing you then!                                                  Sheila
