Rainbow Mind LGBTQ+ Wellbeing Session (Online)…

We are pleased to be offering a series of LGBTQ+ wellbeing sessions delivered in partnership with Rainbow Mind. These sessions are designed to provide a supportive, affirming space for LGBTQ+ colleagues to focus on wellbeing, reflect on lived experience, and connect with others in a safe, inclusive environment. Each session will run for 2.5 hours and will include a mix of facilitated discussion, reflection, and practical tools, with regular breaks built in. 

Sessions will be delivered through a combination of in-person and online formats, with Rainbow Mind facilitating the online sessions. In terms of content, the sessions will explore:

• Mindfulness and grounding techniques to support emotional regulation
• Minority stress and its impact on LGBTQ+ wellbeing
• Social media, misinformation, and how harmful narratives spread
• How to fact-check information and identify credible sources
• Strategies for looking after yourself when engaging with difficult or hostile dialogue online
• Self-care and sustainability for activists
• Using the resilience wheel as a practical tool to support ongoing wellbeing
