Hello, my name is Reuben Shojin Bruchez. I am a Soto Zen Practice Group Leader, with enough meditation experience to know that I could use more, even though I currently help run a Zen sitting group.

I'll be happy to help with any meditation help the group needs. I can give basic meditation instruction, and some limited guidance, at least within my meditation modality.

Hi all!

My name's Erica Watson. I'm co-facilitator for a discussion group studying A Course in Miracles. I'm also an amateur artist, an EFT practitioner, and have some familiarity with Qigong and Tai Chi.

I'm totally new at political activism, but I felt a strong pull to be a part of the Occupy movement in some way. Having no idea what that should look like, I've been asking my Inner Guide what I should be doing at any given moment. So on Friday afternoon, when the choice came up between joining the march, or joining this working group for a meeting, I asked again, and the answer was perfectly clear, and intense feeling that was almost a physical tug in your direction.

So here I am, guys. I'm a college student, I still have obligations to my classes and my discussion group, which meets on Friday nights and Sunday afternoons, and I'm not equipped to camp out in the park, but I'll be here when I can and help you and O.A. in any way that I can. Thanks for having me.

Peace!
~Erica

[jlennox]

Blessings, my name is Jeremiah Lennox. I am a Certified Nurses Aide who is both First Aid and CPR certified and a level II Reiki practitioner. I also have experience as a ritual facilitator and counselor for various Pagan and Christian ceremonies as well as experience with yogic meditation.

My interest in this is based on my philosophies as a Druid and as a human being. We must stand hand-in-hand to manifest genuine change in our society. Too long have we sat complacent while we are controlled, treated , and used like cattle.

I currently have an open schedule and can be reached at 518.390.5817 or at [e-mail].
