I am a book author, poet, and spiritual teacher living in Greensboro, NC, USA. My collection of poems titled Asylum was just released by Main Street Rag Publishing Company. Reviews call the book beautiful, powerful, and redemptive.

My book, Love Changes Things: Even in the World of Politics , published in 2012, was followed by a book tour in California, Virginia, and Tennessee, USA. It is based on my experience of taking unconditional love into the halls of Congress, the Soviet Union, and the United Nations, with the goal of reversing the nuclear arms race, with profound results.

I sure do. The first book I wrote is entitled 'ONE Life-Love-Energy", which happened after I discovered that all matter is only energy, made of cells which are simply made up of atoms. All is ONE. Right?

Thank you for starting such a positive group! I'm a teacher, peace consultant, and author and believe that what we create can make profound impact in the world. I'm curious if you have written about anti-bullying or creating peace for children?

Here in Mexico, where I live, I do teach meditation to children. Many of them take to it very well, and most want to learn if their parents are already doing it! I know that there are many sites on Twitter where people share information about bullying and anti-bullying. Best of luck in your search!(less)

I agree! It's great to be friends! It's heartening to share with others who have a similar concern for the world. Thom and I live in Oaxaca, Mexico, but Nashville is our home base in the US. We visit once or twice a year to lead spiritual workshops, for Thom to do vibrational energy/massage sessions, and for us to visit friends.

Thanks Caroline for "friending" me. I look forward to reading your book and engaging with you on here! It's nice to meet kindred spirits around the world (or a few cities away, as it were.)
