*#1* I'm thrilled to share with you that I'm going to be leading the Skill Building portion of the Pioneer Valley Sustainability Network meeting *this Wednesday*, January 19 at the Westhampton Library, 3 South Road, Westhampton, MA. ---The meeting runs from 9-11:30. The Skill Building portion of the meeting will be an hour on Sustainable Communications and go into connecting mission and message. The most effective manner to engage an audience, including body language, word choice, and presentation method will also be discussed. Please RSVP to Brian Markey (bmarkey at pvpc.org) if you plan to attend. The PVSustain meeting will be a great way to give you a taste of what will be happening during the full day studio workshop that I am planning during February. The full day studio workshop will more further develop the idea of effective and connected communications and allow participants to get started on an idea or campaign with active feedback and development assistance from participants and workshop facilitators. *#2* Beginning *tomorrow*, Tuesday January 18, I will be leading a weekly guided meditation at Karma in Northampton on Tuesdays from 5:30PM- 6:30PM. *#3* Beginning *this week *Wednesday January 19, I will be leading a weekly guided meditation at Indigo Massage in Florence on Wednesdays from 6:00PM- 7:00PM. For both #2 & #3 The meditations will last approximately 45 minutes and will include aspects of centering, protection, grounding, self and earth healing, deep relaxation, and protection depending on the guidance I receive and the needs of participants. 15 minutes at the end will allow for an opportunity for participants to reflect, rest, or move on as needed. Some of the aspects of my guided meditations are channeled by me, others are from well known healers and spiritual traditions. Everyone is welcome regardless of experience. ---Normally these sessions will cost $10, but in the interest of giving people a chance to try something new and potentially transformative, I'm offering these group sessions for $5 per participant for the rest of the month of January.--- *#4* Facilitated by myself, Val Nelson, and Karen Ribeiro the second Women & Spirit in Business Café will be happening on *January 31**st** *at the Nacul Center in Amherst http://www.eventbrite.com/event/1153555315We gratefully thank Shalini Bahl for all her contributions to the organization and development of this effort.
