    Prescott AZ (June 27, 2016) – MATFORCE is offering a free workshop to help parents, educators or anyone working with children to understand what lies beneath a child’s negative behavior.  The workshop will explore addictive behaviors such as alcohol and drug use, pornography, perseveration, stealing, self-mutilation, circular thinking and much more.

    “It is about healing the root of the behavior,” says Helene Timpone, workshop presenter.  Participants will learn how to recognize the true underlying issues and gain new skills to use with the child. Topics addressed will include:  the relationship between trauma and self-soothing behaviors, how the brain imprints addictive cycles and how to assist a child under stress find healthful ways to regulate themselves.

    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→
