On a practical level, this Portland social group is for lesbian/queer and queer-friendly women who have vitality and a strong sense of self. I say "practical" because I realize that most people use meetup casually, to meet others and find things to do from time to time. But ideally, I'd like to manifest a village of warriors. To me, a true warrior of modern times is a strong woman who has a healthy relationship with power. She speaks her truth, walks her own path, lives by her chosen principles …

A spiritual divorce brings us back into the presence of our highest self and heals the split between our ego and our soul. When we use our divorces to heal our wounds, learn, grow, and develop ourselves into more loving, conscious human beings, we have truly had a spiritual exp …

Come share your heart, rest in Being, and connect with others in a safe nurturing setting. Most forms of Spiritual realization have been experienced in the subjective "inner" dimension of our lives. The process we share here reveals the way that embracing our human "everyday" selves and connecting with others not only feels good, but deepens our spiritual awakening too. We expand into a larger energetic field that connects us at the heart in ordinary human relationships, where life is lived. Tod …

Writing opens the door to all other kinds of creative expression. Writing is a way in and a way out. It opens doors and windows to creativity. It carries y …
