Be more present in your life, develop self-compassion, and connect with others through kindness and shared experience. Beginners welcome! There’s no question: many people are feeling more stressed and anxious than ever before. We feel overwhelmed by work, family, life, technology, political and social unrest, and the 24-hour news cycle. Why wouldn’t we be stressed? We’re only human. It’s important to recognize that while we can’t control what happens around us, we can control how we respond to the stress in our lives. Mindfulness 101 is an 8-week online course where you will learn how to focus attention and cultivate an awareness of the present moment with greater clarity and sense of balance. This course is taught by Chandra Moira Beal, a certified Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction teacher. This course features interactive practices, exercises, and classroom discussions.

"The Dykes and Their Friends Between Revolutions" is Lambda Archives of San Diego's adaptation of the 1977 book title "The Faggots and Their Friends Between Revolutions" by Larry Mitchell. Mitchell's visionary work imagined queer liberation through allegorical storytelling, offering a radical vision of community, resistance, and survival during a time of intense political struggle for LGBTQ+ rights. By centering "Dykes" in the series title, we honor the specific histories, activism, and cultural contributions of lesbian and queer women in our region—communities whose stories have often been marginalized even within LGBTQ+ historical narratives. Like Mitchell's original work, our series explores the spaces "between revolutions"—those crucial moments of organizing, community-building, and resilience that sustain movements for justice across generations. This event series includes an exhibit featuring original archival material from our collection that showcases the history of LGBTQ+ lesbian organizing, arts, advocacy, and political struggles in the San Diego-Tijuana region.
