Why have a Toronto-GTA Paleo Enthusiasts group? The high carb, low-fat fad has led us into the greatest period of dietary epidemics ever! Civilization is the sickest it has ever been. The medical establishment brought us achievements dealing with infections and drugs, but today it is obviously enraptured with the 'symptoms' of this malnutrition, not prevention since we are sicker then ever. The high carb grain-based food pyramid, and highly processed foods lining the grocery ailes has made us si …

I decided to make this group as a way to bring together fun 20-30-somethings living on the west side of Toronto! Being 26, unmarried - but not single, and no longer in school, I've found it seems to be harder to meet new like-minded women and I thought I'd reach out and bring some girls together! Together I hope to try out our local cafes, yoga classes, trendy bars, etc. We can have nature or urban walks with our cameras, sketch, taste wine, anything!! Lets just use this group as an excuse to ha …

Working with native plants over the past decade has led to a deeper appreciation of the interconnectedness of all living things and how our mind set can act to dislocate us from this relationship or bring peace and concord to how we relate to the life world. To foster the process of connecting with the inherent richness of both ourselves and the phenomenal world, it seems like a natural extension of Acorus to create and provide the space for self-inquiry, discovery, and mindful action. Singing f …

I love Rumi. Although our earthly paths will never cross, I consider him one of my dearest and most intimate friends. The guidance and teachings I have humbly received through Rumi’s poems have made the ‘good times’ in my life that much sweeter, and have been a source of solace and comfort in times of challenge. Rumi calls me to remember that I sometimes lose touch with my origin in the Divine Source/God/Spirit/the Beloved, and reminds me that it is this Source through which we are all connected …

My group is for women looking for a gentler, kinder approach to wellness, weight, weight loss, body image issues and un …
