SUMMARY:In-Person and Online: Queer Eye(s) on the Precepts
DESCRIPTION:Online: Queer Eye(s) on the Precepts \nwith Leslie Booker\, Jay Michaelson\, and Jacoby Ballard\, assisted by Steph McIsaac \nFour Tuesday evening classes plus a Saturday half-day retreat\nEvening Classes: Tuesdays\, February 17th\, March 17th\, May 12th\, and June 16th 2026 | 6:30pm – 8:30pm ET\nHalf-Day Retreat: Saturday\, April 18th\, 2026 | 10:00am – 1:00pm ET\nSign up for the full course\, a single session\, or anything in-between! \nIn-Person Location: New York Insight at 115 West 29th Street\, 12th Floor \n \nThe Five Precepts form the foundation of Buddhist ethics in the insight tradition. Yet for queer people in 21st century America\, they can also be a little…. fraught. What counts as “sexual misconduct” (if that’s even the right term to use)? Do all drugs “lead to confusion”? What counts as “harsh language” in a culture that is often serving tea? \nIn this 5 month series\, we’re going to take an honest\, deep\, and participatory dive into the precepts. We’ll explore where they serve us\, and where they may not. We’ll work with the complexities that come with any 2500-year-old tradition\, particularly one which often promotes monasticism as an ideal. \nThere will be a ½ day retreat mid way through the course\, and we’ll also have the opportunity to meet in small groups and with a teacher in between the monthly sessions for support to deepen our personal understanding and to cultivate spiritual friendships. \nUltimately\, we hope to arrive at multiple ways of navigating ethics and community together. (And since we take an expansive definition of queerness\, you’re welcome to join if that word speaks to your experience.) \nDescriptions for each class session appear below. You are welcome to sign up for the full course\, or for individual sessions. \nClass 1 – Protecting Life (Tuesday\, Feb. 17\, 6:30pm – 8:30pm ET)\nBeyond “not killing”\, what might it look like to protect life and cultivate non-harming (including non-self-harm) in our violent\, oppressive and extractive society? \nClass 2 – Cultivating Generosity (Tuesday\, March 17\, 6:30pm – 8:30pm ET)\nHow can queer communities cultivate generosity\, mutual aid\, and collective care in a society built on commerce (and theft)? How might this be expressed in creating cultures of belonging? \nClass 3/Half-Day Retreat – The One about Sex (Saturday\, April. 18\, 10:00am – 1:00pm ET)\nWhat does it mean to engage in sexual relationships ethically? How do queer relationship structures and practices – including polyamory\, kink\, open relationships\, asexuality\, and periods of celibacy – fit within the precepts? How do we lovingly navigate relationships with exes and former lovers in often tightly-knit communities? \nClass 4 – Skillful Speech (Tuesday\, May 12\, 6:30pm – 8:30pm ET)\nWhat does “right speech” look like in communities where accountability is important\, in which conflict is not abuse\, and yet where harm can still be done by harmful or hurtful speech\, by gossip\, or even by idle chatter? \nClass 5 – What is an intoxicant? (Tuesday\, June 16\, 6:30pm – 8:30pm ET)\nQueer people have a wide variety of relationships (often fraught) toward substances. What might healthy relationships to substances look like? What forms of substance use block the heart from belonging to one other\, and what might empower it? Other than substances\, what intoxicants might we encounter in our lives (e.g. dating apps\, social media)? \n \nIn-Person Registration:\nPlease register below for the full course or individual sessions. If you are able\, registering at the “Supporter” level enables others to attend at the “Subsidized” level. Thank you for your generosity! (Please note that the registration price includes a base level of teacher support\, and all additional contributions will go to the class’s teachers.) \nIf you are registering via a mobile device such as a phone or tablet\, you can scroll right and left and up and down within the below form if it is partially obscured or cut off.\nCLICK HERE to open the registration form in a new browser window.\n \nOnline (Zoom) Registration:\nIf you are registering via a mobile device such as a phone or tablet\, you can scroll right and left and up and down within the below form if it is partially obscured or cut off.\nCLICK HERE to open the registration form in a new browser window. \n \nVolunteering \nAll of our programs rely on volunteers to support our teachers and staff with various tasks and responsibilities. Volunteering allows you to participate in our programs at no cost. To inquire about volunteering opportunities\, please fill out our inquiry form\, and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

SUMMARY:Online: Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) Course
DESCRIPTION:Online: Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) Course \nwith Jon Aaron \n\nOnline Course: Tuesdays\, June 16th – August 4th\, 2026 | 6:30pm – 9:00pm ET\nOnline Daylong: Saturday\, July 18th\, 2026 | 9:30am – 5:00pm ET \n \nMindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is the ground-breaking and time-tested\, scientifically researched program developed by Jon Kabat-Zinn in 1979 for the University of Massachusetts Medical School. \nThis transformative course is suited for those coming to meditation for the first time or for experienced meditators who realize they have not yet integrated these practices fully into their lives. \nWhat To Expect:\nMBSR uses meditation\, mindful yoga\, and inquiry/discussion as a way of exploring the habits of the mind to discover how these patterns of reactivity become a major cause of stress and where we could intervene to change them. MBSR helps participants learn to alter their relationship with each moment of their lives and through it derive more clarity\, joy\, fulfillment\, and meaning from their lives. Classes usually have 25-30 participants but may be smaller. The course is experiential: by paying attention to what arises in daily and class practice\, and through exploring the challenges that arise and how these are met\, a supportive and safe container is created for students to feel connected and be inspired. Participants are supported by recorded guided meditations and are expected to practice 45-60 minutes of daily formal meditation as well as various informal practices. \nBenefits of MBSR:\nResearch over the past 46 years indicates that a majority of people who complete this program report a greater ability to cope more effectively with short and long term stressful situations; an increased ability to relax\, lasting decreases in physical and psychological symptoms; reduction in pain levels and enhanced ability to cope with chronic pain and most importantly a greater energy and enthusiasm for life. \nSome of the Skills People Learn in MBSR Courses: \n\nPractical coping skills to improve the ability to handle stressful situations\nTechniques for being physically and mentally relaxed and at ease\nGentle full body conditioning exercises to strengthen the body and release muscular tension\nThe ability to be increasingly aware of the interplay of mind and body in health and illness\nThe ability to face change and difficult times in life with greater ease\nGreater ability to decrease the physical\, mental and emotional effects of the societal stressors of sexism\, racism\, homophobia\, xenophobia and gender inequity among many other challenges\n\nCourse Dates \nFree Online Orientation: Tuesday\, June 9th\, 2026 | 6:30pm – 9:00pm ET\nOnline Course: Tuesdays\, June 16th – August 4th\, 2026 | 6:30pm – 9:00pm ET\nOnline Daylong: Saturday\, July 18th\, 2026 | 9:30am – 5:00pm ET \nSliding Scale Course Fee: Sustaining $715 – Base $420 \nPlease choose your rate mindfully and be as generous as possible so that NYI can continue to offer financial assistance to those in need of other NYI offerings. \nIf you need financial assistance\, we have a limited amount of partial scholarships available. Email registration@nyimc.org for more info. \nParticipants may register after the orientation for this class takes place\, but must still view a recorded orientation\, complete the pre-class questionnaire and arrange a pre-class interview with the teacher. Once you have registered\, the teacher will contact you to make these arrangements. \nSign up for the free orientation on June 9 here. \nRegister for the MBSR Course:\nIf you are registering via a mobile device such as a phone or tablet\, you can scroll right and left and up and down within the below form if it is partially obscured or cut off.\nCLICK HERE to open the registration form in a new browser window.

SUMMARY:In-Person and Online: Beyond the Separate Self - Emptiness and the Freedom of Awareness
DESCRIPTION:In-Person and Online: Beyond the Separate Self – Emptiness and the Freedom of Awareness \nPart of The Body Remembers Freedom Series\n \nwith Kaira Jewel Lingo and My Tong\n \nThursday\, June 18th\, 2026 | 6:30pm – 8:30pm ET \nIn-Person Location: New York Insight at 115 West 29th Street\, 12th Floor \n \nWhat if the aliveness we call ‘me’ is not a solid thing at all\, but vast and open like the sky?  \nIn this session\, we begin with meditation on awareness itself\, resting in the nature of consciousness and touching the spacious freedom that is always already here. From this ground\, we explore the teaching of not-self through playful group forms that invite us to hold and be held by one another’s stories. Together\, we discover that when the sense of a separate self softens\, what remains is not emptiness as absence\, but emptiness as connection\, intimacy\, and belonging. \nThis workshop is part of The Body Remembers Freedom\, a monthly series that brings together meditation\, dharma\, and embodied practice in a way that is relational\, grounded\, and alive. Each session includes time for meditation and contemplation\, a dharma talk or shared inquiry\, and InterPlay\, a playful and powerful practice using movement\, voice\, storytelling\, and deep listening to access the wisdom of the body. \nParticipants are supported to be: \n\nMore grounded and connected to their bodies and to one another\nMore accountable to themselves and to community\nReconnected to joy\, creativity\, and inner resource\nBetter able to meet life\, and themselves\, with compassion and presence\n\nIn times that can feel scary\, overwhelming\, or isolating\, these gatherings offer a place to put the phone down\, release accumulated stress\, and reconnect with what feels trustworthy and alive. We gather to remember the sacred in ordinary experience and to be held in the support of community. \nNo experience with meditation or movement is required. You are welcome exactly as you are\, with curiosity and a willingness to be present. \nThe Body Remembers Freedom is offered one Thursday a month from 6:30 to 8:30 pm ET and is offered in a hybrid format. During the InterPlay portion of the evening\, My Tong guides participants joining on Zoom\, while Kaira Jewel guides those attending in person. The full group then comes back together for the closing practice. You are welcome to register for a single session\, select multiple dates\, or join the full series at a discounted rate. \nSessions are recorded and shared with all registrants after the program\, so you are welcome to sign up even if you cannot attend live. \nRegister for one session or the full series (at a discount!) below.\n2026: June 18 | July 9 | August 6 \nIn-Person Registration:\nIn-Person Single Session\nIn-Person Full Series\n  \nOnline (Zoom) Registration:\nOnline Single Session\nOnline Full Series\n  \nVolunteering \nAll of our programs rely on volunteers to support our teachers and staff with various tasks and responsibilities.
