Def one for the books. They say you can never go home. It’s so true.
Good to see my family.
Weird to see the ashram in its death throes.
The current administration is threatening to fire people who want speak their truth and threaten elders with eviction. These are people who’ve worked and lived the community for 50 years.. as much as I have my issues with the ashram it’s sad that ruling with fear still reigns.
Two more times in Tahoe!!
Three memoirists
And one evening of conversation
Join Bridey Thelen Heidel @brighteyesauthor and Shannon Nering @shannonnering and Priya Hutner for an intimate thought provoking author conversation
Psychedelics, Consciousness and Writing to heal.
