Join BWBH for this DEI Workshop

Empathy to Connect Community

Co-faciliated by

Alina Balseiro and Gihanah Seb-Di Dio

Through this virtual workshop, we will reflect on ways to build empathy to encourage greater understanding and connection within communities. By tuning into our own self-awareness, we can explore and expand relationships between our peers, our loved ones and ourselves. Join us as we experiment with mindful practices that are foundational to how we communicate through our inner language as well as the words we share with others.

Learn how we all develop patterns of thought and communication in society, and discover how we might reframe old stories about ourselves and others. We will share simple ways to uncover new considerations of all ways of Being with empathy and kindness, particularly in relation to LGBTQ+ allyship.

FREE and open to ALL.

Please DONATE! We co-create FREE practice in community thanks to the generosity of our contributors.
