I am a humble student of life. I have learned and grown immensely my 20+ years in Boulder, Colorado. I am a participant in David Chernikoff’s Tuesday meditation group since 2001. I have been a volunteer at and attendee of the Rocky Mountain Eco-Dharma Center https://rmerc.org/ since it began.

I have personal experience with trauma/stress healing. I sustained a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) over 30 years ago. Consequently, I have a “Cognitive Disability” along with a legal guardian and financial conservator. The reason I have the conservator is to maintain my eligibility for Medicare/Medicaid. Before my last payday, I had under $30 total in 3 accounts. In order to keep my eligibility for Medicare/Medicaid, I must maintain a low balance. I work, part time, baking pitas for falafelkingfoods.com.

My goals in participating in this course are:
1. gather more information
2. be engaged in community
3. work on my own expression of “the work”
4. become more engaged in the life giving commitment to resistance — to the status quo.

I am part of two communities primarily
– 1. Vipassana meditation
– 2. The Five Rhythms community https://goldenbridge.org/
Please view my video: vimeo.com/25037209 – which asserts, “Life is just learning and learning is just life.”
Please support my getting a registration fee waiver.

I am pleased to commit to my attendance those times and dates.

I am very pleased at the prospect of being part of a minipod, in addition to my self-directed work.
This is completely doable for me, and I am thrilled for the opportunity.

I am not very socially engaged.
