Rest is a revolution

Dear LGBT People of Colour,

Would you like to assist in improving the accessibility of LGBT POC in NHS by sharing your lived experience* through sessions centred in joy; community connection; peer support; listening learning; workshops and shared meals. All feedback provided in the sessions will remain anonymised and used to improve NHS practice through a training session.

Come and join Tamsin (she/they) for a QTIPOC “Rest as Resistance” yoga workshop.

Tamsin is a deep believer that rest is a radical act. She believes that as QTIPOC people, one of the greatest forms of activism can be prioritising and devoting yourself to a self-care practice (no matter what that looks like for you). Within this session, Tamsin will guide you through gentle yoga asana (postures), pranayama (breathwork) and meditation to give you a full and nourishing yoga experience. We will then work through some journal/thought prompts to further support you on this journey. The hope is that you will leave feeling closer to your community and to your true self.

Tamsin adopts a trauma-informed, body-inclusive approach within all her sessions, aiming to make them accessible to all levels, bodies and abilities. You can find more of their classes here: https://linktr.ee/tamsinicoleyoga

All abilities welcome

Yoga mats will be provided as a gift to each participant.

By signing up to this session you agree to adhere to our safer spaces policy which can be found here: https://lgbt.foundation/who-were-here-for/safer-spaces-policy
