Learning to lucid dream, astral project, or have an out of body experience requires work and practice in the real world. I have personally had many lucid dreams, and have even had an incredible out of body experience. I know others that have seen/predicted the future in their dreams with amazing accuracy and detail. For decades I have read about people with money (grants) performing lucid dream experiments in labs with high tech equipment and often thought how cool it would be to get involv …

Let's get together and bring our charts and our favorite study materials to help us better understand astrology and its effects on us! This group's focus is mostly around studying, reading, sharing and comparing charts, books and other information used to better understand astrology and its concepts. Those joining this group should have some base of knowledge, although I encourage those who still consider themselves "beginners" to definitely come and be a part of! This is not a group focused on …

I'll be honest....I have no friends! I just moved to the Portland area for business. I have a great job, an amazing boyfriend...but I miss spending time with girls! I know I can't be the only twenty-something, semi-single career gal new to the area, and thought this might be a fun way to meet some fun girls. The group will be about the reading if you'd like it to be...or we could talk about the book for about 15 minutes and then just drink wine.

It's one thing to study the Law of Attraction by reading books, listening to CDs, and attending lectures but it's another to put what you have learned into practice.  How do you make that transition from holder of knowledge to being a successful manifester and life changer?  You can join "Living" LOA where we are about incorporating the Law of Attraction into our daily lives to uplift energy, spirit, health, and our dreams. To accomplish this, the majority of our activities are geared toward int …

I enjoy reading, and honestly, I need to make more friends in Portland.  (Really, who doesn't? Couldn't we all use more friends? and books to read? Anyway...) My plan for this group is to host one meet-up a month where we will get together to discuss that month's book, and enjoy some food.  The first couple will probably be held at a public venue, but I am hopeful to host out of my apartment after I get settled a bit in this role as group leader.  I will post other activities as meetups during t …

This is a women's group for discussion and preparing action plans for what I like to call "everyday preparedness" or "practical preparedness". Any ladies are welcome (you don't need to be a mom). No experience? No problem! Discussion topics will be similar to those found in CERT training, and books like "Just In Case" by Kathy Harrison, and "Survival Mom" by Lisa Bedford. We will not be debating or discussing the likelihood of doomsday scenarios. Example topics for discussion are: water storage, …

Too many books, to little time to read what a book group wants you to read. Right? But you still want to share the books you love, yes? This is the book group for you. First, we pair up, and each person gets 5 mins. to tell the other one about one of their favorite reads. After 10 mins., we switch bookpals. Lather, rinse, repeat. After 3 rounds (30 mins), we get to mingle freely. We'll also put everyone's book title and name on a board to stir up further intrigue. Optional: Scribble or send a tw …

Without continuous innovation, your business will die. As a founder, CEO, or innovator, you're always trying to find and execute on the strategies, principles, and processes that can give you an edge over the competition. The goal of this group is to give some structure and accountability to that education. Every month, we pick a new online course/book/text book/video/lecture, learn the materials, systematically test them within our own businesses, and share the results. We'll cover topics in bo …

So you took the red pill and now you want a group where you can discuss the big picture openly without judgement. From the inconsistencies with 9/11 to chemtrails to ufo's to ancient ancestors to social engineering, anything goes in the rabbit hole. The intention for this group is to have bi-weekly discussions around a topic chosen by the group with a video and book list we can research prior to the meeting. Looks like Round Table at 62nd and Foster will be our spot for now, be sure to purchase …

Why is this not your average women's book club? 1. We are going to read fun intelligent books that probably won't be on Oprah's list. 2. We are going to meet up in bars and pubs (in the Beavertonish area) instead of living rooms and coffee shops. 3. You don't have to be a big reader, just read a few pages so you can discuss. You will never feel bad for not finishing the book here! 4. Last but not least we wont take ourselves to seriously. This is about meeting new friends and having a good time. …

With the press of clinical work, broader intellectual needs of mental health clinicians can go wanting. But clinical fields are hardly the only—one could easily argue not even the strongest—avenue to understanding lives. Many scientific and scholarly disciplines study, and shed light on, human nature, suffering and well-being, and conditions that make for better and worse lives. This study group explores the work of such disciplines. This is not a book club. We will devote to each topic we addre …
