[UUPoly-L] Fw: Expansive Loving celebrates it's first year this coming Sept. 9

["Tara Shakti-Ma" <dakinitara@tantrikapath.com>]

Dear Poly Folk:

On Sept. 9th, the online poly discussion group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ExpansiveLoving/ will be celebrating it's first year.  Members of the group are being invited to share some of the ways participating have impacted their perspectives and experiences.

At this time we would also like to make a particular effort to invite other like-spirited folks to come and join us as well.  Our homepage reads as follows - 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Expansive Loving" is for those interested in and/or practicing Polyamory (multiple sexual-loving relationships with the full knowledge and consent of all involved), with spirituality and Sacred Love as the grounding for their life and relationships. Poly-folk with an interest in spiritual polyamory, spiritual-sexual integration, creating sexuality-positive culture, living consciously and in touch with the Sacred, the Tantric/Taoist and Earth-based paths, eco-action and social action/change may find this group of particular interest. 

We welcome members from all spiritual paths without judgment or debate (regarding those paths). We are here to share from and support each other in our intention to engage in conscious loving from a deep heart space. 

Our discussions include concepts such as "transparency", "non-violent communication", information on sexual health and healing, personal growth and self-healing, models and ideas around community building, sexual rights advocacy and "considerate autonomy"/non-agreement polyamory.

This group serves world-wide. No matter where you live, you are welcome to join. As well as welcoming all spiritual orientations, we warmly welcome all sexual and gender preferences (or lack thereof), and all those who otherwise self-identify as LGBTQ. The same holds true regardless of race, ethnicity, "Life-style"/Love-style, marital status or ability difference.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In less than one year we've grown to 554 members...and still growing, of course.  Our lowest posting month was Jan. '09 at 223 posts, and our highest posting month was Oct. '08 at 1134 (this was during a massive influx of new members).  Over all, our average monthly posting rate is around 593.  

We welcome you to come and join in the discussion.  

Please feel free to share this invitation with your local poly-groups.

Peace:
