    logo OLLISedona AZ (April 9, 2012) – The Sedona Community Center has a new Executive Director, John Tamiazzo. Come hear him speak on Thursday, April 19, from 12:30 – 2:00 at Lunch and Learn, the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) Keynote Speaker program, in room 34 of Yavapai College’s Sedona campus (on Cultural Park Road, across Rte 89A from Red Rock High School).

    Tamiazzo has experience in the fields of human potential, neuroscience, health, wellness, and transpersonal psychology. He has taught workshops on the power of imagery and imagination, positive thinking, changing belief systems, the psychology and physiology of positive aging, meditative states and relaxation processes, learning to nurture the brain, and skills to improve health, wellness, and ameliorate emotional and physical pain.

    Before coming to Sedona, he was program director for three community mental health and research centers, and the executive director for two traumatic head and brain injury facilities, in southern California. He also served as an instructor in Santa Barbara City College’s program for the older adult and taught for the UCSB Counseling Program for 15 years. Tamiazzo is the author of two books: Love and Be Loved and Returning to the Land of Oz.

    What Would I Change?
    By Amaya Gayle Gregory

    What would I change if I could? You and I both know I can’t, but it’s a fun exercise anyway. I would have been less of a know-it-all on my spiritual journey. It seems to be a side-effect of the path. Spiritual folks develop an all-knowing buffer to protect against their inevitable surrender to the unknown, but understanding that now didn’t make it gentler on me or those I loved, let alone those that I deemed not capable of getting it 😉 Yeah … I’d have dropped the spiritual snob act. I’d have recognized that spiritual radicals are only different on the outside from radical right Christians, and that the surface doesn’t really matter as much as I thought. We are all doing our couldn’t be otherwise things, playing our perfect roles. I’d have learned to bow down humbly before my fellow man, regardless of whether I agreed with him or not. We’re all in this together and not one of us will get out alive. Read more→
