Many had a story to tell: Click here to see this year's responses It's not too late to take the poll: Click here Dynamic Mindfulness Workshop  April 13 and 14, 2012 Charleston, WV Daniel Golman, author of Emotional Intelligence describes Mindfulness as an essential aspect of self-awareness and emotional intelligence. In this workshop we will also explore the "body as map of the psyche"; non-violence in therapy, empathic skills such as contact and tracking (reading subtle, unconscious cues); and how creating safety, embracing resistance, and protecting the spirit encourage the cooperation of the unconscious. Mindfulness is not meditation, it is a way of becoming more aware of self and other. This workshop will introduce practical, evocative relationship skills. It is designed for psychotherapists, counselors, social workers, healing arts practitioners, message therapists and students in these fields. It is also open to individuals seeking to experience greater mindfulness and inner connection. This workshop is limited to just 20 participants.   When: Friday, April 13th, 2012 1:00pm-6:00pm Saturday, April 14th, 2012 9:00am-5:30pm   Where: Unity of Kanawha Valley Church 804 Myrtle Road, (corner of Myrtle and Bridge Rd) Charleston,WV   Cost: $125.00 – Please Register by April 7th, 2012 Early Bird Special of $110.00 if your registration is received by March 14th, 2012   Prof CEU's available.   Cick here for more info on how to register KPCC's Jim Dent Dinner Oct 16, 2012 featuring Humorist Ralph Hood Celebrating Health and Humor!   Humorist Ralph Hood returns to the Jim Dent Dinner.
