PERPLEXED?

These are troubling times. Many very competent professionals have lost their jobs or are finding that their careers and families are suddenly vulnerable.
CLARITY!
If meditation, therapy, support groups, or binge-watching aren’t cutting it anymore, join me in an exciting journey to REDISCOVER YOUR OWN MIND:

You don’t have to go to a monastery in Spain, a retreat center in Sedona, or prostate yourself at the feet of a master in Tibet. The path to sanity and peace lie closer to home: It rests in the most lively and exciting real-estate on this planet- the grey space between our ears. Since the time of Plato and Socrates (or closer home Jiddu Krishnamurthy, or Lin Yutang) philosophy has been a powerful tool for making sense of a turbulent world. Our enthusiasm for psychoanalysis and therapy have allowed us to forget a time-honored process.

Every Sunday I will be facilitating philosophic discussions with a small group of curious minds. Join us to deliberate about the questions that really matter:
Who am I, really?
If I don’t have a job, what am I?
If all my values and beliefs are being trashed, what am I left with?
Can a good person respect someone who is racist or sexist?
How do I survive in a world that is aesthetic and morally offensive to me?
What can I do to create a just and humane society?
How do we live a good life in a merciless world?
How do I know what is true and what isn’t?
Why should I learn to reason- can’t I just trust my intuition?

These are not lectures. They are less psychology and more philosophy. These sessions are gentle deliberations to nudge our minds into benign clarity. If how we understand the world affects our sanity and peace of mind- let’s do a better job of understanding it.
