Dear Jane,
I'm totally amazed, inspired and just speechless at the collection of art, writing and reflection you are gathering here. I'm so appreciating the talent and insight you are bringing to this leadership group. I can't wait to see what unfolds out of that unique and fascinating bodymind of yours! I'll write more to you later. I'd love to share this site with the others if you are willing, and with cynthia winton-henry also... just let me know. Peace and blessings to you! Diane
