From the founder: Upon graduation, I promised myself I would never wear a suit, nor would I work in an office. Fate threw me suited up into an office for seven years. This was my tour of duty in the illusory world of hierarchical control, greed, fear and systemic hypnosis. I was living a half-life, and no-one was more aware of this fact than I was. There were, of course, moments of stunning humanity in my time in “the office” working as a financial adviser and all round salesman for the corpor …

Finding the inner multidimensional completion & loving collective connection that we seek, fulfilling all our hungers. Leading us to the trancendental creative communion …

"Don't tell me the moon is shining; show me the glint of light on broken glass. " ~Anton Chekhov There are a lot of writing groups that get together to write and read work. This is not one of those groups. This group is inspired by Dorothea Brande's classic bestselling reference book "Becoming A Writer" that focuses on removing the unconscious impediments that lead us would-be writers to falsely believe that writers are born, and not made. It's about acting, feeling and thinking like a writer to …

Intuitive Painting classes/workshops utilize painting as a tool for self discovery and spiritual exploration. This is a revolutionary way of unblocking creative potential and facilitating personal transformation. Through the use of spontaneous intuition and the Point Zero method of self questioning, participants find their authentic painting expression. Fears and judgments that have blocked creative energy can be used as the key to unlock the source of your passion and creative potential. Usi …

If you're thinking about the past, or planning for the future, you're missing the present -- and that's where spontaneity, creativity and connection occur. Improv …

I decided to start this meditation group because I didn't find one that made sense to me. Mediation is an individual exploration that we must define for ourselves but at the same time it can be enhanced with the support of others. Meditation like all things in our lives requires consistency in order to reap the benefits of it. I believe in the benefits of meditation but consistency has many obstacles. I would like for this group to focus on both the act of meditation and the obstacles we face. T …
