I am in the third year of my graduate program, MA in Integral Psychology. I am very drawn to Ken Wilber's Integral model, because it is the first thing I have encountered that helps me really make sense of my own life and the bigger picture.

I am currently working on my basic Integral lifestyle, with a focus on my health and wellness. Lately that has meant a total makeover of the way I eat (according to the basic guidelines of the Weston A. Price Foundation). I strictly avoid refined sugars, white flour, transfats, and excitotoxins like aspartame and MSG. I'm also trying to fit in more exercise and meditation. In the past I have also used 12-step programs (OA), Byron Katie's “The Work” (something I'd like to do more of), Laurel Mellin's “The Solution/Pathway” (truly amazing, it works!), and just working on maintaining a supportive physical environment (i.e. keeping the condo clean, surrounding myself with kind people, etc.). 

I am currently working three part time jobs. The first one is teaching fun science classes to kids at after school programs (and more!). The second job is bookkeeping for a nonprofit that is aligned with my interests and major. I do most of the bookkeeping from home, which makes things very flexible for me. I am also the executive director of a third non-profit.

I'm not perfect, but I'm kind, interesting, and goofy. I love learning, laughing, and connecting. I am working on myself and I am also very concerned about the world as a whole. I am very close to my parents and sister, they live a few towns over (about a thirty minute drive away). I hang with my sister and her fiance' about 2-3 times a month and with my parents at least once a month.
