Hello lovely mad people! MAD CAMP 2023 WAS A HUGE SUCESS SO WE ARE DOING IT AGAIN!

Biofilms are there to protect the body as much as anything...encapsulated bad stuff acumulated throughout a lifetime. Environmental toxins and pharmaceuticals are used by the micro-organisms to hang together. The resulting stuff becomes more and more difficult to treat.

(NEW PAGE/POST Meditation, not all bliss and roses) ... letting my readers know what is going on Hello, this is a brief note to my readers to explain the emails you've been getting. Last year I did a fundraiser so that I could update the site and get better SEO standing on search engines. Many of you helped that happen with donations. Doing the updating actually requires a lot of work and as I update old posts I republish them and you get an email! So that is why a lot of old posts are coming to you. I'm workin on choosing posts that remain timely and useful. I wrote this post to share a page that I just updated because pages don't have an email option. That post is: Meditation, not all bliss and roses it includes a collection of many posts on meditation and mindfulness etc. and some of the issues with such practices that are rarely discussed elsewhere. thanks for reading and please be in touch sometime. I don't really know who you all are anymore. Social media has changed a lot. Oh...there is a facebook page too if you're interested.

Somatic living is life itself speaking to us Dissociation is more frequently an issue then recognized. Projection (something pretty much everyone does) is a form of dissociation. Disembodiment is the norm. People avoid embodiment because the process can be physically painful… sometimes so acute it’s permanently avoided

I remember the first time I watched Dina Tyler on stage in 2014 on a youtube video and fell in love! Here she presents her psych survivor story and the story of so many of us with open vulnerability in front of a room filled with psychiatrists. I am in awe.
