What is the London LGBTQ+ Centre
As a proud lesbian, I know the importance of a safe space. The London LGBTQ+ Centre is an organisation dedicated to supporting LGBTQ+ individuals in London. I love this space! It is bright, light and right in the city centre (not just hidden away). They provide a safe space for our community to come together and access a variety of resources and services, such as peer support groups, counselling, and social events.
Breathing @ the London LGBTQ+ Centre
Community activities are a great way to connect with others and build a strong bond. This bond helps one feel supported and encouraged, making it easier to focus on their mental and physical health. In an LGBTQ+ community setting, one can find people who share similar interests, experiences, and goals, which can be very motivating.
​
When breathing sessions are incorporated into community activities, the benefits can be amplified. A group setting forms a supportive and non-judgmental environment, where participants can share their experiences and motivate each other to continue the practice. The communal experience helps participants build a sense of belonging, trust, and understanding. It also helps in improving social skills, especially for those who might feel socially anxious.

I was honoured to provide two wonderful sessions for my community. Stay in contact to be the first to know for similar events.
