Dear Reader, Perhaps one of the most mysterious quandaries is our human journey and how we navigate aging. Elaine Aron's recent book on spirituality explored many aspects of awakening and enlightenment through the lifespan. Pema Chodron has recently been speaking on the lessons and mission of later life, and now we have the new book by Sister Joan, another wise teacher. Our autumn wisdom curriculum will begin with the lovely book, The Gift of Years by Sister Joan Chittister, and will continue with the topics the group chooses. We will be a small but spacious group. I truly hope to see you there. Questions? Feel free to ask by replying to this email. Many blessings, Alane Freund, MS, MA |

Dear Reader, Squat Challenge for Sensitives: An annual program for sensitive nervous systems. How did it start? I got on a squatting kick a few years ago in August. (Thanks to reading the great book, Built to Move by the Starretts.) I turned it into a weeklong challenge. I think I might have said 100 squats a day back then!! Wow. Why August? I realized doing bodyweight squats had a huge impact on my nervous system and mental health which aligned perfectly with Differential Susceptibility...
