Queer Practice: Integrating Our Experience

A practice for integrating our life experiences (with a special emphasis on the overall experience of identifying as queer or specific instances of it): a guided journey to reassembling our sense of self around positive qualities of mind and heart. Based on an original method developed by Dr. Alex Berzin on the basis of Buddhist teachings on emptiness.

This is pure wisdom and so heart-opening. I thought of something mildly difficult to start, now I feel encouraged to practice with something deeper next time. 🙏🏳️‍🌈

A reminder that no matter what mt path has been like, I can always be kinder and more accepting of myself.

I will need to repeat this many times.
As always, with gratitude 🙏🏼

Wow. Integration is key. Was able to integrate my experiences and had so many film ideas. Thank you. This was magical.

Thank you for this meditation

Wonderful meditation 🧘🏽‍♂️. Thank you 🙏 🤗 🥰✨💫

Amazing practice. Thank you 🙏🏿

Thank you, this was just what I needed. I will return to this meditation again.

Totally different from what I imagened, but still very nice. Helps to integrare problematic or difficult relationships or prts of oneself

Thank you! What a wonderful queer focused meditation experience 🧘🏻‍♂️

A nourishing and affirming healing practise. I will return to this often. Thank you and much metta.

Wonderful. (This is the first queer-specific meditation I have heard on IT, so that’s good, too.)

I would not recommend this to absolute beginners to meditation, but it is quite accessible once you feel comfortable with the basics.

It’s a great intro to a technique that can be applied to many aspects of anyone’s life (not just queer-identified folks), though again I applaud the specificity of this recording.

Bears repeat listening —in fact repetition is explicitly encouraged in order to familiarize yourself with the practice. Just note that there is a fair amount of introductory information that you may want to fast forward through after a couple of listens (assuming you are an app subscriber).

Vividly beautiful teaching!

A clearly articulated guide into aspiration, embodying positive qualities, and sharing those with are loved ones and our community.

I found this to be a method deep acceptance which left me feeling hopeful and inspired. Thank you, Lobsang Tenpa.
