It seems that the 30's is such an important stage in life when you are redefining yourself, establishing yourself and asserting who you are as an adult in the world. My purpose in creating this group is to create a space fo …

My father was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer 3 weeks back. I had no idea about where to start. Was it time to cry, get him the best medical care, find a care giver or to go do yoga and meditate to settle myself down. As I sat in the waiting room while my father was in surgery, I met a woman whose husband had just had a part of his brain removed and another 74 year old that taught me how to face the death of a loved one. Every one said one thing - at this time, you faith and family is what you nee …

This is a series of lectures designed to provide background information for people who are psychic and/or highly sensitive. I will discuss characteristics of psychic people and what has been discovered in peer reviewed, replicated scientific studies of psychic ability. I've found that highly sensitive people feel much better about themselves when they realize their intuition about themselves and reality is much closer to the truth than they ever imagined.

To be human is to experience suffering.  To be in recovery, is to be aware of suffering and willing to let go of that which causes suffering.  Each of us has our own life experiences which have brought us to this point, and each of us must walk a distinct path.  Buddhism offers a framework to become more aware of the nature of suffering, and how to end suffering.  I hope you'll accept my invitation to try these tools yourself, and find ease in your own life.
