Dear Caitlin
I was reviewing old emails and wondered what became of your project 
below.  In light of your goals and dreams, I, also, thought to let you 
know about an authentic movement and focusing group I and a friend, 
Aileen Crow, have been offering.  Both of these techniques (authentic 
movement and focusing) are gentle, respectful techniques for exploring 
trauma or any other difficult areas of life participants are struggling 
with.

The group will meet  March 25, April 15 & 19  from 4 - 6 at the Mary 
Seidman studio, 252 W. 30th St. (near 8th Ave.) 4th Fl. (4A).  The cost 
is $25 but we have a $20 student rate.  You can call me at 212 721-4284 
if you have questions or would like to attend.   Let me know if you'd 
like to be informed of future dates the group will meet.

warm wishes,
Barbara
