Note: **This is an update from the original copy. After what seems like some confusion as to how "sexuality" is defined, I thought I would refer to the American Psychological Association's definition: "Sexuality is a broad area of study related to an individual's sex, gender identity and expression, and sexual orientation. It also includes the effect of prejudice and discrimination based on the aforementioned topics, as well as sexual disorders". There's a plethora of topics and issues to cons …

This is a group about potentiating and living from our Desire or Life Force. It's for people who are aching to show up Bigger, to ignite and stoke the Inner Fire, to become more fully alive and impactful in the world. Unfortunately, in some spiritual traditions, we're taught to temper this runaway force of Eros rather than to harness it for creation. Life (even spiritual life!) is a Full Throttle Ride. We’re not here to soft-peddle some half-ascetic version of The Middle Way. We're here to let o …

Do you feel out of step with our acheivement-oriented "Young Soul" culture where only DOING and becoming Top Dog matter? Has YOUR life been more about BEING, the Search for Meaning, learning to LIVE that Truth and finally "teaching everything you know berfore you go"? Then you, my friend may be an "Old Soul". We are a distinct minority around here and can use the support of Kindred Spirits to stay on our self-chosen paths! This group is for Metaphysical Discussion, Spiritual/Psychological Suppor …

neurofeedback uses a learning process that strengthens and develops the synaptic connections in the brain. At one time it was nearly impossible to consider home training since the technology was so expensive. Now it's still expensive but a fraction of what it used to be. I'd like to start something similar to Fight Club but without the violence.

The purpose of this group is to gather to discuss intellectual topics with others who like a good discussion.

THE DIAMOND APPROACH® -  The Diamond Approach is a path of spiritual realization characterized by sincere inquiry into one’s experience, fueled by the love of truth. The immediate contact with the truth of our experience allows the unfoldment of our soul to reach increasingly deeper levels of truth, each level a valid expression and display of the deepest Truth. The fruition of this path is not simply the realization of this depth, but the actualization of True Nature in all its various dimensio …

And we'll collect people as we go along, get to know each other, and talk about lots of random, interesting stuff along the way. Lots of you will find this through Ken Wilber's writing, Spiral Dynamics, etc., and lots of you will have some sort of spiritual practice. But, n …

Welcome Based on the work of noted author and social researcher Brene Brown, this group is about women coming together to share experiences and support each other in being “enough”. In today’s culture, we are bombarded with messages of insufficiency. Women are especially vulnerable when it comes to feeling that we are never enough – never skinny enough, never giving enough, never attractive enough, never smart enough, never successful enough and on and on. Now more than ever, women need to come …
