Many decades ago family therapy burst onto the mental health scene thanks to leaders in the field such as Dr. Salvador Minuchin and other greats, too many to name here. I was trained in this modality behind the one-way mirror and, over the last 20 years, have trained and supervised others in providing this amazing treatment option to kids and their families. As our evidence has grown, indicating the effectiveness of working with youth within the context of their families, more clinicians have be …

Satsang means company of the truth/knowldge. Man needs protection from the changing elements of nature, so he builds a shelter for physical comforts.

In singing Satsang/Kirtan we sing Kirtans/Bhajans in Sanskrit, Spanish, English, Hebrew etc.  The word "bhajan" is very precious. "Bhaj" means to share. Sharing what? "Sharing all that the Divine is". Your whole body is made up of …

The way we have done this in the past, everyone brings a bottle of wine or the host can pick the wines we will taste and everyone shares the bill. The …
