If an event has to be postponed for any reason, you will have the option to either receive a full refund or transfer your registration to the same event at the new, future date.

Refund and Event Policies

A monthly online practice and affinity group for all those on the LGBTQueer+ spectrum, whether new to mindfulness or a seasoned practitioner.

LGBTQueer+ Mindfulness
We warmly invite all those who self-identify as LGBTQueer+ to practice mindfulness together. This is an opportunity to explore and share our experiences within a supportive community.

Every second Sunday of every month: 1 – 2:30pm PT.  
Note: For November, we will meet on the 3rd week on November 17.

Who is this practice group for?
No matter where you fall on the LGBTQueer+ spectrum and whether you are new to mindfulness or have been practicing for years, we welcome your unique presence.
