Hey there. I'm hoping this book club will fill a gap that's missing in the local book club scene. I really enjoy reading books that are engaging and leave me feeling like I've learned something. I also really enjoy books that help me understand other people and where they are coming from. So I started this book club, which I've named 'People, Places, and Perspectives.' People - personal stories, psychology, sociology, anthropology Places - geography, culture, urban planning Perspectives - how ot …
Waking Down in Mutuality (WDM) exists for our mutual awakening and embodying of Infinite Consciousness. We have found that the direct route to this type of awakening lies not in striving to rise above our human tendencies, but in falling totally into them with conscious awareness. This, along with an investigation of Consciousness, and transmission of Being, catalyzes a quantum shift in identity. We find that we are no longer exclusively identified with our finite human self, but have shifted …

I believe that in the field of professional counseling, you can't have too much support, especially from others who can relate to your experiences. My idea is to have a monthly or bi-monthly group to get together as a sort of peer supervision. I don't want to completely decide at this point what the format of the group will be like. I would rather like to have that as a point of discussion at the first meeting. I am open to having a mixture of sit-down serious supervision sessions and also more …

There are a bunch out there that I have already read that I would love to discuss, but I am also …

… About Emotional Freedom Techniques EFT or "Tapping" is a modality that combines the principles of the Chinese meridian system with modern psychology. Think of what would result if the Yellow Emperor and Carl Jung procreated (well, kind of). EFT stimulates the body's acupuncture points, however, rather than using needles, light tapping is used. Tapping allows the body’s physical energy system to engage with the mind, helping align the two. Thus, EFT works with our natural ‘mind-body’ connection – …
