Teleseminar with Genevieve Vaughan & Susun Weed.

Teleseminar: "Will COVID-19 help us to transition to a gift economy?" with Genevieve Vaughan & Susun Weed.
Thursday 5/7/20, at 9:00pm Eastern.

The gift economy as seen through the eyes of Western anthropologists is well known in academia. It involves rules for reciprocal giving and giving back within communities. However, there is an earlier gift economy that takes place among mothers and children that has to be unilateral because young children cannot give back anything in return for the gifts they receive. My contention is that this unilateral gift economy is the economy of life, and all other economies are derived from it... The challenge is now to understand this new story about who we are and disentangle ourselves from the mechanism while maintaining ourselves and the other species alive. This requires shifting away from patriarchy and exchange and returning to the maternal model, which we all already have within us.

Our first Teleseminar of 2019, next week, Monday, 2/18/19, at 9:00pm Eastern.
Comfort Touch, A Special Way to Connect with Mary Kathleen Rose & Susun Weed.

Comfort Touch® is a nurturing form of acupressure that can bring the benefits of touch to a broad range of people. While it is safe and appropriate for infants, the elderly, and the ill, it can also be enjoyed by anyone seeking relief from the stresses of daily life. Based on six guiding principles, Comfort Touch® offers a safe, respectful, and nurturing approach to touch. It is calming to the nervous system, so it promotes deep relaxation and relief from pain.
While Comfort Touch® is a complementary therapy offered in medical settings, is can be safely practiced at home with family and friends. It provides an enjoyable way for members of a family to care for each other, as part of a general focus on health and wellness.

Mary Kathleen Rose is a licensed massage therapist, internationally known for the development of Comfort Touch®, a complementary therapy widely used in hospices and other medical settings. She believes that the nurturing, comforting power of touch really begins and ends in the home, and she loves to share powerful, yet simple techniques to be used within the family.
A wellness educator and lifelong herbalist, she holds a certification from Susun S. Weed in the "Spirit & Practice of the Wise Woman Tradition." She is the author of several books and numerous published articles, including Comfort Touch® of the Hands & Feet: A Guide for Family Caregivers, and The Children's Tarot: The Road is a River. She is passionate about the relationship between healing and creativity, and loves to play a variety of musical instruments, including piano, drums, and flutes.
