LGBTQ mindfulness meditation | 20 affirmations on finding visibility for ourselves | PRIDE

Описание: The promotion of visibility is without a doubt an important thing; even though visibility is a double-edged sword, it’s still critical for progress to take hold by having LGBTQ+ people be seen, heard, considered and included.

But sometimes we’re missing one essential person’s recognition: us.

We fixate on being properly noticed by strangers, by coworkers, classmates, neighbors, politicians, our mom or dad, a random barista… but we forget to take a moment and be visible to ourselves. Let’s take a short break out of our day to be visible to ourselves, to really notice the lovely form we're in.

If we’re gay, trans, pansexual, asexual, intersex, nonbinary or any member of our beautiful communities, we should offer a warm hug to the person we are right now, and really properly see the person we are. Let’s not flinch at the face we see in our unedited selfies. In this moment it’s safe; you may breath, and smile, and be a tiny bit selfish. Let’s reflect on some peaceful, affirming sentences.
