Healing with Love Let There Be Peace on Earth And Let it Begin With Me Imagine if everyone on earth was filled with peace. Peace that is not contingent on what is happening around us. This Peace is already inside of us, every moment, every one of us. It is our True Self, also called the Big Self. This is: " The peace of God that passes all understanding". Join me in accessing your True Self using the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model. We will include polyvagal exercises to soothe our nervous systems. Our True Self is what heals us. With access to our True Self we can be compassionately present to the parts of us and others that carry the burden of old wounding, emotions, beliefs. With the power of the Love that is already inside of us, we can heal the emotional burdens of the past. Over time our parts will look to the larger Self for guidance and soothing. And then we can choose to live a life that is Self Led rather than led by our wounded parts, our fears, our angers, our past. My hope is that this will become a daily practice. So that we can achieve Peace on Earth, one person at a time. And it starts with you (and me). Start date: Tuesday, September 17, 2024 Start time: 5:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Where: 1153 VT Route 66, Randolph, VT End date: Tuesday, November 26, 2024 (10 sessions) Cost: $40 per session. We can bill your insurance for group therapy, if applicable. Please contact Marge Crowe, MSW to register or with questions at: marge_crowe@yahoo.com OR 802 272 9884 Please join me in Healing with Love.

Hello Everyone! Please reach out if you are interested in joining my last practicum as I fulfill my obligation to the program. I know that I am missing some folks in the email I sent out, but I couldn't find their email addresses. I'm sure it's late in moving forward. Life has been extremely busy and complicated, As I am sure you all are as fall approaches. I have decided to change from the beginning of September to the last part of the month. September 22, Sunday, starting at 9 AM. I will have it at my house and we can make this happen. I am located at: 25 South Pleasant Street Randolph, VT 05060 802-249-2973 sueforcier@hotmail.com I have been cleared for the day-long program through MMTCP. My schedule for the day will look somewhat like this: The First Hour and a Half will be a quiet reflection on what it means to interact with oneself through meditation music with little to no sharing until the end of the hour. The second Hour and Half will be a nature walking meditation through the path down by the river in Randolph, VT. This is weather permitting. Lunch Time for sharing reflections in the morning. Third Hour and Half will be on body movement using some yoga skills to reflect on the importance of honoring our body. The fourth and Final Hour and a Half will be on personal sharing of what it is to honor our five senses, Compassion, Acceptance, and Loving Kindness toward self and others. This may include open discussion on how the issues in the world are impacting the way we see our lives and how we choose to live and honor the human life process. This is not set in stone: As you all may come up with other ideas. I am open to sharing or leading these open topics. Mindful awareness into honoring others and being respectful of others at all times. Please reach out as this is very important to me to finish my program.

Drawing inspiration from old school influences like Descendents/All, Dag Nasty, and Off, they've also drawn comparisons to Hüsker Dü, The Gits and Naked Agression. Their first EP, Fighting Words, was released on July 26 and is available on all streaming platforms. The band's feminist anthem "Ledbetter" was featured on Liberty or Death Record's 2023 compilation "Women in Punk." Embers in Umbra: Pop rock band based in Vermont. With powerful female vocals and an energetic, sometimes hard-hitting sound, Embers in Umbra brings a mix of originals and fun covers to the stage that will move you. The band consists of Bri Lucas (vocals), Matt Sicard (rhythm guitar), Justin Bachand (lead guitar), Jay Cerutti (bass) and Anthony Girelli (drums). The band formed in early 2023 and released their debut album "Phases" in February, 2024. In early May, the band was nominated for 3 "Best of Vermont" Seven Daysies awards in the Best Rock Group, Best Pop Group and Best Vocals categories. Psych Ward Disco: NH Hardcore Thrash Punk.... Breaking Up: Breaking Up is a melodic punk band from Manchester NH influenced as much by the unapologetic politics and raunchy humor of 90's skate punk as they are by the technical wizardry of progressive metal and fusion. Since their start in 2019, the band has released an album, "Living With Joanna", and a single, "Still Here", and has been featured on compilations and in the soundtrack of a short horror film.
