Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: free, The Compassionate Brain, to Ann for those interested in neuroplasticity
Well I'm sure there are many leaders on campus who consider me a revolutionary so not a stretch to be seen with a former one! No badge needed to get on campus. Just into the Dome. As for me being perfect hostess, I'm too much of an introvert for that. Tell you what. I was just writing at Bonnie's 2nd Street Cafe. Remember Doug and Bonnie White? He was a Lit professor. They're grandparents now but no longer married. Bonnie has run the cafe for many years. Wonderful spring rolls in the daily buffet which includes fish and lasagna and veggies and sweet potato patties. Cup cakes! Her son's paintings on the walls. Cozy and creative vibe. 2 blocks from where I live. And Bonnie can give you a receipt if you need one.

Click here Hello, For Sounds True, I'm hosting a free 7-part video series with extraordinary guests - The Compassionate Brain - that will give you effective ways to change your brain and heart and life. Beginning October 8, 2012, on seven Monday nights, 8-9 pm Eastern time (GMT -4), I'll interview a world-class scholar/teacher (in order): Richie Davidson, Dan Siegel, Tara Brach, Dachar Keltner, Kelly McGonigal, Kristin Neff, and Jean Houston. Each week, they'll discuss different ways to use the power of neuroplasticity - how the mind can change the brain to transform the mind - to open the heart, build courage, find compassion, forgive oneself and others, speak and act from both kindness and strength, and heal the world. You can watch live or see the archived videos if you miss a session. These unique conversations with first-rate experts are freely offered - along with their practical tools for cooperation, empathy, and kindness. (The series is particularly timely in light of a U.S. Presidential election occurring right in the middle of it.) Our world has needs at different levels (economic, environmental, cultural, etc.) but the common factor in all of these is the human brain, whose ancient fight-or-flight circuits are dragging humanity toward if not over the brink. If more people and more brains - and thus more hearts and hands - turned toward compassion, that could make a real difference. So I would really appreciate your support for this series. You could sign up for it yourself and - please - forward this email to tell others about it. It's interesting, solid, practical,

I think you are a latent event planner perhaps. Introvert? Doesn't sound like that at all. I mean, how many other introverts put themselves out into the hands of Light Weavers, Sedona Method practitioners and Jyotish charters(?) like you do? You have to be pretty brave and out there to do THAT.
