Safety Awareness & Violence Prevention

The power of instinct will protect you from harm all through your days.
Lao Tsu
Chinese Philosopher 570-490 BC


The Women's Center is offering a Violence Prevention Night for women who are interested in becoming more aware of choices before becoming a victim of violence. The class is interactive and fun. Using scanning and observation skills with the inner voice of instinct and intuition, we will explore the process of awareness in our surrounding from the first niggle of the gut response "this is not right" begins to the end when we know we are safe. There are many choices early that give us many options to respond thereby avoiding unsafe encounters in the first place. To walk away is the greatest choice there is.

Acupressure, Autumn, and Menopause


In our forties we become the elders to our youth;
In our fifties we become the youth to our elders.


Menopause is the time of internal enlightenment; the autumn harvest within. This is the a final opportunity for sorting, what is wonderful and useful to our life, while eliminating and cleansing what has not worked or is no longer useful anymore. As we look to the season for guidance, it's easy to see that the autumn flowers that bloom are warm, vital, and vibrant while being a little more tolerant, a little more resilient, and a little tougher to the harshness of the elements. Menopause is for creating this vital transition.

Out beyond ideas of wrong doings and right doing
there are fields . I’ll meet you there.
When the soul lies down in the grass
the world too full to talk about
Ideas, language, even the phrase “each other”
doesn’t make sense.

Rumi


I grew up, playing, at this powerful place. I long to go back there. The sacredness of life is always present. I'm grateful to understand this now.
