Recently, many of us reunited as a practitioner community to celebrate Earth Day. The feedback was inspiring and many of you requested that we continue our connection through these informal gatherings. I thought that if we were to meet this year at special times; for example around the Summer Solstice and Autumn Equinox?

Stay tuned for information on our next practitioner gathering. |
