Roman remains, frugality and healing

Big week this week .. though we're expecting bigger ones soon!


First off, Evan has returned after completing an intensive continuing education course in Seattle on craniosacral therapy through the Upledger Institute. This is truly amazing work that addresses body, mind, and soul from the very core. Check it out at http://www.upledger.com/. This really moves him forward in his dream of healing more effectively.


Second off, Andy got to meet (again) one of our heroes, Vicki Robin, of Your Money or Your Life fame. Vicki was in town to talk about the latest edition of the book, and he got to chat a little with her and ask some of his burning life management questions. Vicki is very inspiring and motivating. Here are some of of her insights ..

"More is better equals a recipe for disatisfaction and is what we live inside of " (i.e. our culture)

"Frugality is a high joy to stuff ratio!"

and "I buy my freedom daily with frugality"

She has a website with lots of information http://www.yourmoneyoryourlife.info/ - check it out and change your life. This program, as we have said before, has been a large force behind our new, improved life freedom.


And with that in mind, we are busy preparing for our first trip of 2009 - a month to travel in England and Spain. We're visiting London (naturally = Andy's family), Newcastle, York, Manchester, Liverpool and Chester, and then off to Barcelona for Carnaval (Spain's Mardi Gras) and apartment living for a while! Our friend, Gina, from Oakland, California is joining us for the last part of the UK gig and the Spain trip.


Us at Hadrian's Wall, near Newcastle on our last trip. Hadrian's Wall is a very old, very big, and very long Roman wall - built to keep the Scots out (English version); built to keep the English out (Scottish version)!
We'll keep you posted with what happens next ....
