This is a support group for women interested in finding the underlying reasons for using excess food. There are no "diets" in this book.  Instead we focus on what is really going on when we go to excess food and what are the reasons behind that automatic behavior. Our pace will be a chapter/lesson per week (unless our group decides that we need more time) and discussing that particular chapter at each meet-up. Yes that means we will be meeting for 22 weeks, including our first meeting last night …

We are a Thesis group, devoted to traditional and respectful thesis gods such as Athena, Thor, Odin, Apollo or Tyr, and additional beings from these traditions that are known to be allies of these gods or who are at least not openly hostile to them and what they stand for. We keep our perce …

When your feet touch the Earth, your body starts to remember, as Mary Oliver put it, “your place in the family of things.” Many of us long for this kind of connection to be present and accessible in our lives, but in the frenzy of modern urban daily life, it can be difficult, at best, to achieve: Not only are we disconnected from the Earth, we are disconnected from our bodies as well. And we can be critical and demanding of both. We can live from a softer, more connected place – one that loves a …
