Embrace your Pain and Grow!
You cant stop the waves of life, but you can? learn to surf! Life's waves promote feelings of fear, anxiety, depression/loneliness and can wash away feelings of stability. Mature, committed, growth oriented, self-reflective group members learn to navigate the tools & have the chance to "see" themselves through their own eyes, as the "smoke in mirrors" clears up in an emotionally safe forum - where truth takes precedence over appearances, and humility inspires intimate connections bestowing a rich sense of well-being.
