And here are some of my thoughts on living a life of joy, empowerment, transformation and community:
----- VISION -----
My vision for life:
The opportunity to be playfully serious and seriously playful.
Aliveness, Freedom and Power.
An expansion of everyone's ability to be open, loving and powerful in the face of real world challenges.
Spaces to practice powerfully sharing all of our emotions: from fear, sadness and anger -- to joy, excitement and bliss.
Spaces where touch and sensuality can be evoked.
Spaces where you can be both nurtured -- and lovingly called on your stuff.
An invitation to be all of yourself. To share and explore your:
o Greatness -- as well as your Challenges and Limitations;
o Intelligence -- and your Intuition;
o Body -- and your Spirit;
o Sexuality -- and your Heart.
-------- A MISSION for Community -------
To surround ourselves with open, embodied, adventurous friends -- that are committed to having fun while transforming themselves and thereby the world around them. We create juicy community events that empower us to express and integrate all parts of ourselves.
--------- STANDARDS of Care and Self-Responsibility ---------
Taking responsibility for our emotions and for speaking our Yes's and No's
"There are no victims – there are only volunteers." Choosing responsibility for our life
Deep Listening and Full-Spectrum (from gentle to fierce), Heart-Connected Feedback
Intentional Clearing and Re-connection
