In the words of Jack Nicholson, are you 'Suckered in, set up, pushed around?' Don't worry, whatever you've been doing thus far is not As Good as It Gets. Are you saddled with an active brain, a healthy dose of cynicism, a great sense of humor with a sharp wit (maybe even some acerbic sarcasm), bit of shyness, possibly a latent mental disorder or two, some good old fashioned baggage, and perchance stuck between arrogance and lacking self-confidence? Do others see you as aloof but in reality, you …

Do you want a place where you can discuss your deepest feelings about yourself and the society we live in, in a supportive atmosphere? Many times, the culture we live in frowns upon sharing emotions, problems, anything that's really on our minds. We're expected to put up a front of "Everything's okay" all the time. But this just creates social isolation. The more isolated we are from each other, the more chance depression and anxiety have to breed. I am starting this group because I am not satis …

Hey there, fellow and sister questers! Here we all are playing at putting the laws of attraction into practice; let's get together and share our tales of the road, great books, inspiring teachers, etc. I see our group as a community created around a shared passion: living life as conscious co-creators with a very friendly universe. Hope to see you at the meetups! Kate

Those of us in the healing professions are lots of fun! We're interesting, creative lifelong learners who like to connect with people...and we spend a lot of time alone. Many of us spend our days one-on-one with clients (and one-on-one with our computers)...and even the most introverted among us eventually needs a bit of human interaction. So this is a social group for coaches, therapists, bodyworkers, medical professionals, etc. Let's just hang out, make friends, and enjoy ourselves!
