SUMMARY:Meditation for the LGBTQIA+ community
DESCRIPTION:Gender\, Sexuality and Relationship Diversity Group \nPlease note –  from the start of 2026 the group will be meeting on the last Saturday of the month: \nSaturday 31st January\nSaturday 28th February\nSaturday 28th March\nSaturday 25th April\nSaturday 30th May\nSaturday 27th June\nSaturday 25th July\nSaturday 29th August\nSaturday 26th September\nSaturday 31st October\nSaturday 28th November\nSaturday 26th December \nMeeting every last Saturday of the month from 10 am to midday at the Buddhist Centre. Please arrive early for a prompt start. Optional from 12.00 we often have a social gathering and finish the morning with tea and cake until 13.00. \nThe group is suitable for GSRD people new to meditation and those with an established meditation practice. \nOur 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\,\nagender\, 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. \nThe 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 and often Buddhist ritual. \nWe do not charge for our classes but encourage the Buddhist principle of Dana.\nIn translation Dana means Generosity much need it to cover cost of running the building and our classes.
