Free stuff and request for help

Oct 31, 2006 19:36

I'm helping put together a free forgiveness training. The dates are set now. It will be online, three Tuesday evenings, beginning the week after Thanksgiving. When I've got a final on the press release, I'll post it here.

You'll see when you read it, it's not a psychiatric process in any sense. It's really about managing the bad feelings, getting them under control, so you've got more perspective and confidence to deal with things.

The results are great; I can talk about my experience with anyone who's interested. But the one thing that really stood out for me is better judgement. When you're not engaged in some kind of internal firestorm, it's a lot easier to figure out the right thing to do.

Meanwhile, I need help. I know there are busy people reading me. But maybe this might be something that you can do in a few minutes.

I need to build a publication list to approach with this story. I've never worked in this realm before. So if you read or know any publications that cover the following areas, please let me know about them. A URL or some kind of contact info would be really helpful.

1. Meditation
2. Alternative Medicine
3. Holistic ... whatever

Anything like that.

The actual technique is similar to the one developed by a man named Jon Kabat-Zinn, who wrote about it in a book called "Full Catastrophe Living." It was designed to help cancer patients manage their stress and pain. It went on from there to be used for cardiac patients. All of this was heavily researched and the impact on stress, pain and healing was well documented. Now it's being adopted by people who want to manage just the stess of everyday living.

It's based on meditation, but it's like someone with years of practice just handed you some key nuggets that you can use in a few minutes. It's not the same as meditating for years, but these nuggets are just incredible.

So, think about coming. And if you have any ideas for good publications, websites, radio programs, etc., please let me know.
