CMSC Circles of Practice Public Offering is honored to bring you this very special event to celebrate those who identify as LGBTQIAP2S+ around the world. This is a safe refuge and an opportunity for all self-identified LGBTQIAP2S+ to come together as a global community to practice self-compassion, feel connected, and empowered. It is important to us to wholeheartedly welcome self-identified LGBTQIAP2S+ individuals and acknowledge their courage and contributions despite experiencing marginalization and social inequities. No experience with meditation is required.

You can sign up to attend a single session or stay for all three. We ask that you stay in loving silence throughout the duration of this silent retreat. All participants are asked to please stay muted. You will have the option to use the chat box in between sessions to share words of inspiration and gratitude.

Here is the retreat schedule (7:00 am - 10:00 am PT / 3 pm - 6 pm BST)
