What thoughts stand between you and peace? What thoughts stand between you and anything you want to do or be?
All that can hold us back or throw us off is a thought Ñ any thought that opposes reality, that people or circumstances are not okay as they are, or imposes limitations on life, on ourselves, on others.
Are you ready to try on this radical idea and question your own mind?
Learn how to meet your thoughts with love and understanding using a simple system of self-inquiry: The Work of Byron Katie. We believe a lot of thoughts that weÕve never stopped to questionÑand these thoughts run our lives. In fact, we have no choice but to live out the story of our thoughts.
Who would you be without your story?
Because The Work is an experiential process, the evening will be spent doing The Work. WeÕll capture our stressful thoughts on paper and follow Byron KatieÕs simple lines of inquiry to question them. YouÕll learn the basics of how the process works and get a taste of its power to transform.

Where:GreenStar Cooperative Market, 701 W. Buffalo St. Ithaca
Who:Amanda Lewis
In Chinese Medicine, certain mental and emotional states are listed among the primary causes of disease. While these states are natural and can certainly be appropriate, whenever any one of them dominates the inner landscape and begins to regularly interfere with daily life, it is inevitable that the physical body will be affected.
In this January 20th class, we will talk about how acupuncture, diet, self-reflection, and the use of certain herbal remedies and supplements can be used to address many of these most common mood imbalances: 1. Stress & Anxiety, 2. Depression, 3. Melancholy and 4. Grief
At the end of the class, we will take a tour through Greenstar, highlighting the various foods and supplements mentioned in the class.
