"...a trans-mystical work of love and change..."--Ali Blythe, author of Hymnswitch The mystics who coined the phrase 'the way of affirmation' understood the apocalyptic nature of the word yes, the way it can lead out of one life and into another. Moving among the languages of Christian conversion, Classical metamorphosis, seasonal transformation, and gender transition, Luke Hathaway tells the story of the love that rewired his being, asking each of us to experience the transfiguration that can follow upon saying yes--with all one's heart, with all one's soul, with all one's mind, with all one's strength ... and with all one's body, too.

In this book, Johnston argues that affirmation is not only encouragement or support, but also the primary mechanism we use to form our identities and create safe spaces. Using the work of feminist care ethics and the thinking of French philosopher Henri Bergson to examine responses to school bullying and abuses faced by LGBT older adults, he provides the theoretical analysis and practical tools LGBT people and their allies need to make all spaces, public and private, spaces in which we can live openly as members of the LGBT community. With its combination of philosophical theory and on-the-ground activist experience, this text will be useful to anyone interested in philosophy, women’s and gender studies, psychology, aging, geriatrics, and LGBT activism.

Navigate the complex spectrum, be who you are, and find happiness with an attitude of positivity. The queer community has been through a lot, hasn't it? The members of the LGBTQIA+ community saw the riots at Stonewall, they saw their happiness being questioned, and they saw their existence being denied any recognition. It's still tough to be gay in this day and age — you don't need a therapist to tell you that. A queer person goes through many different stages in their life, starting with the crisis of identity. Am I gay? Maybe I'm just bi. No, maybe it is just a phase like they all say it is. Then, they move into self-acceptance but have a fear of really coming out. What will my parents say? Will I get fired from my job for being gay? Maybe I should just keep it a secret for now. While keeping it a secret might be the easier choice at times, it's never the happiest one. But the LGBTQIA+ community are fighters. From the march from Stonewall to the shooting at Pulse, gay people continue to keep their chins up to fight for who they really are. That's called the ultimate resilience. Now, it's time to turn that fight into positivity. Affirmations are one of the best ways that queer people can really manifest a happier life. It's your turn to live the life you want and be the person you were born to be. In this inspirational guide, you will discover: - The world of positive affirmations – discover its power and how it can wash away the negativity - Powerful affirmations to become physically healthy by fighting all the pressures of body image in the gay community - The power to find love – use positive affirmations to build yourself up with happy relationships - How to take care of your mind and push aside those negative influences that are bringing you down constantly - The tools to become financially successful with a better understanding of the laws and regulations that protect you as a gay person - How to embrace your femininity, be who you really are, and embrace affirmations to live a free life - The best way to fight internalized homophobia – uncover the secrets to taking down this dark monster through positivity And much more. You still might be wondering if positive affirmations really do work or if they're just a bunch of new-age nonsense.

How can you build unshakable confidence and resilience in a world still filled with ignorance, inequality, and discrimination? The Queer and Transgender Resilience Workbook will teach you how to challenge internalized negative messages, handle stress, build a community of support, and embrace your true self. Resilience is a key ingredient for psychological health and wellness. It’s what gives people the psychological strength to cope with everyday stress, as well as major setbacks. For many people, stressful events may include job loss, financial problems, illness, natural disasters, medical emergencies, divorce, or the death of a loved one. But if you are queer or gender non-conforming, life stresses may also include discrimination in housing and health care, employment barriers, homelessness, family rejection, physical attacks or threats, and general unfair treatment and oppression—all of which lead to overwhelming feelings of hopelessness and powerlessness. So, how can you gain resilience in a society that is so often toxic and unwelcoming? In this important workbook, you’ll discover how to cultivate the key components of resilience: holding a positive view of yourself and your abilities; knowing your worth and cultivating a strong sense of self-esteem; effectively utilizing resources; being assertive and creating a support community; fostering hope and growth within yourself, and finding the strength to help others. Once you know how to tap into your personal resilience, you’ll have an unlimited well you can draw from to navigate everyday challenges. By learning to challenge internalized negative messages and remove obstacles from your life, you can build the resilience you need to embrace your truest self in an imperfect world.

'A must read' JAMIE WINDUST 'A beautifully honest book' JUNO ROCHE 'A superb and necessary book' BEN PECHEY As a young, queer, plus-size person, Essie Dennis has spent a lot of time feeling like they weren't enough - not queer enough, not feminine enough, not perfect enough. When they took to social media to share how they felt, they were overwhelmed by how many others felt the same. I look too masculine to be non-binary I look too feminine to be a lesbian Am I too fat for drag? Inviting you to challenge accepted beauty standards and the concept of 'the perfect body', Essie takes everything they have learned on their journey to self-acceptance and body satisfaction to help guide you towards loving your queer body. From gender, sexuality and reclaiming your body, through to food, politics, social media and fatphobia, this radical book starts a conversation about body image and mental health that queer people are so often left out of. Fiercely and unapologetically written, and with honest advice and powerful stories from a diverse range of queer people throughout, this is an inspiring and necessary book that will show you that you are enough.
