Open to: Everyone

Description:
Bringing our mindfulness practice to gender invites us to open and be curious about the possibilities of gender identities beyond the binary. Our gender identities, expressions and experiences profoundly impact all areas of our lives providing us both joy and difficulties. How do we create communities that are open to all genders and learn how to navigate the complexities of gender? During this day of practice, we will investigate how cultural, historical, and familial conditioning around gender impact us as individuals and as communities. Through meditations and interactive activities, we will explore gender in order to nurture a world that is founded in inclusivity and freedom for all.

All are welcome! No one will be turned away for lack of funds as space allows. For more information, please email Registration@spiritrock.org.
