We hope everyone down in Southern CA are also finding those little magical pockets of community where you get to be exactly who you want to be!

EVENTS

Get out, take care of yourself and heal in community!

ANNOUNCEMENTS

Don't forget there's lots of upcoming ways to get involved!

  • Gender Spectrum is coming up in July! "Gender Spectrum provides education, training and support to help create a gender sensitive and inclusive environment for all children and teens." They run an annual conference in Berkeley, CA for youth, families and professionals! Go check them out! Registration is now open! They are also looking for volunteers!
  • You've done plenty of volunteering and advocacy this year! How about you do something for your queer kinky unicorn heart and run away to Amorous Revolt? Amorous Revolt is queer kinky camping, "To celebrate our bold love, our brilliant spirits, our playful (and sometimes serious) sex, our creative relationships, our radical interdependence, our perfect bodies, and our unstoppable power and agency."
  • Hey younger COM|PASSionate REVOLUTIONARIES looking for something fun to do this summer?? How about Brave Trails-- a leadership summer camp for LGBTQ Youth & Allies?! Folks that are our age or older-- we know what you're thinking-- where was this camp when we were in high school?? Well, you can still go help out by being a camp counselor or leading a workshop! Go check them out!
  • All of these internet shenanigans too much? Need to digitally detox? How about checking out Camp Grounded: Summer Camp for Adults! CA camp is over but you can still take a road trip to hit the North Carolina camp in August!

Does going out seem like a lot of action this weekend? We understand- staying in and hibernating can sometimes be a nurturing option. However, if you're concerned that challenges with social anxiety are holding you back we hope you reach out for help! Joyable offers a modern day alternative to psychological or psychiatric treatment. It might not be the right fit for you but you can try it for free for 7 days! Read an article about them here or check them out for yourself here.

Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend!

Happy Friday COM|PASSionate REVOLUTIONARIES! Slowdown

We're continuing to sink into summer-- the heat, the slow down, the rush to get outside, the retreat back into the a/c, all of it... but we're trying to get stuck in the slow down.

We're soaking in the sun, whether dry or muggy, we're not rushing to wipe away the sweat-- the cleanse, the renewal, the epic journey of our internal body systems manifesting on our skin.

We've been pausing to slow our rituals, take time to honor our explorations, and lay our bodies and our hearts down on the hot concrete.

How are you celebrating summer?

COM|PASSionate EVENTS

Happy Friday COM|PASSionate REVOLUTIONARIES! How goes the start of summer for everyone?? Here in Southern California we've been oscillating between the summer sun, June gloom, and the much needed breaks for drizzle that aren't nearly enough to quench our ever present drought.

It's been sweltering and sweaty and altogether lovely.

{Image Credit: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/3307399702158577/}

We're committing to enjoy ALL of it.

There are so many fun things happening this summer we fear we might float away into adventure dreamland so we're doing our best to stay rooted, grounded, and centered in gratitude and presence. Here are some things we're excited about this week and in the upcoming months!

We want to give an extra shout out to Brave Trails this week! An LGBTQ Youth and Allies Leadership Summer Camp so close to our own neck of the woods?! We can't help but be a little smitten!

Folks that would like to support by leading a workshop- the due date for proposals is Monday 6/15/15! They're also still in need of cabin counselors!

Happy Friday COM|PASSionate REVOLUTIONARIES! We hope you had a fabulous week! We've been contemplating being unicorns in a pony world and how we might make the world a more unicorn affirming place. We're not sure exactly what the sparkling glittery path will be just yet but we wanted you to go into your week knowing that it's being planted, dreamed and watered.
