Hi, thanks for stopping by! I started this group out of my interest in Positive Psychology, meditation, mindfulness, flow, resilience, optimism and related applications to health, relationships, business, parenting, education and personal growth. An interesting aside is that several current and former faculty at The University of Michigan have been instrumental in the development of Positive Psychology. I'd like to do things like a Positive Psychology book discussion, have informal chats, inv …

This group started off 6 months back as a Women's only group. We've had the chance to meet some fabulous women through this group. We've decided to expand the group by allowing men to join! As this group did start off as a women's only group, there will still be many events that only women can attend. I understand that many of you would have been attracted to the group with the idea of it being ladies only. So, I will keep that in mind and plan a couple events each month for just the ladies. All …

I recently had a chance to experience sessions of group therapy and found it to be amazingly beneficial for myself and those that attended with me. I think that even without assistance and input from a Therapist directing, just being able to have a "safe-zone" to "LET IT ALL OUT!" has healing power. " Group therapy without the quack therapist" as I've coined it!! I want this group to be about a community of people that wish to share their lives... With that said I ask that you attend with an ope …
