From Elizabeth Gilbert's FB; thought some of you might be interested in checking it out; I think I'll have a look myself :)

Dear Ones:

I am so honored to be part of this wonderful offering from Sounds True.

It's called The Self-Acceptance Summit.

I'm guessing you can figure out what it's about, based on the title!

It's an online gathering of so many great thinkers teachers (Martha Beck, Iyanla Vanzant, Marianne Williamson, etc) — all of them puzzling their way through questions about what it takes to suspend self-hatred and self-judgment, and how to find compassion for the one person whose soul is undeniably in your care: You.

Registration is open now, and my interview will be available today at noon.

ONWARD,

ETA: I did check it out, the very first video presenter tried to sell me lifetime access for $147 (nope, not buying), so...caveat emptor? Some of the upcoming videos sound interesting, though, so will check 'em out as time permits...

Shift work course, from CDC

Some of the theory I hadn't known before, and some of the tips are pretty good (and I took this course while working a night shift, some weeks ago...:P)

So, I thought perhaps some people here might find it of interest ([livejournal.com profile] browngirl, for example :))
