Humanistic-Existential Psychology started with Carl Rogers, Abe Maslow and Rollo May in the 1960s and led to a revolution in how we understand meaning as the central aspect of our lives. The key ideas are how we can grow as people and continue to self-actualize or become more fully developed. Existential psychology adds to this that we often greatly benefit from some of our 'troubled times'. So that happiness emerges out of unhappiness. Both of these call into question the 'medicalizing' of psyc …

Waking Down in Mutuality (WDM) exists for our mutual awakening and embodying of Infinite Consciousness. We have found that the direct route to this type of awakening lies not in striving to rise above our human tendencies, but in falling totally into them with conscious awareness. This, along with an investigation of Consciousness, and transmission of Being, catalyzes a quantum shift in identity. We find that we are no longer exclusively identified with our finite human self, but have shifted …

There are many good sources of information about G. I. Gurdjieff and his teaching. We would rather meet you in person than give you more things to read. We have found in experience that face-to-face work with a group of companions is essential to practicing the teaching. Our study takes the forms of discussion, meditation, practical work together, and sacred dance. Please send an inquiry if you like. Look us up on Facebook as the Maryland Gurdjieff Society. Or check out our website, a work in p …

I am passionate about Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) and the incredible benefits that can come from the simple act of tapping on specific points on the body while holding an intention for healing. It sometimes seems too good to be true yet, as a practitioner, I've seen too many successful results to doubt its power. I want to continue to spread and share this amazing technique with the Washington DC community. To that end, we will have weekly or bi-weekly meetups to tap together on a number …

Let's get together over coffee and chat about the novels of Susan Howatch, which have been described as follows: In all of these novels there is a meshing of Christianity and psychology, which Howatch uses as a tool to perhaps reach those “who say and think that religion is outdated rubbish.” If you talk to these people in the language of psychology, she says, “then you can say, this is what Christianity is saying. Learn the language." You don't need to be a Christian to enjoy these novels. Ther …
