Hi Vicki. Happy new year, and welcome to the online depth community. My apologies for the lateness of this greeting but I'm glad you're here. Hopefully you have had a chance to explore the site and have found the Alliance to be made up of a dynamic group of likeminded people who can learn from each other in a multitude of ways--something many of us are searching for to be sure.
On that note, I hope you're finding ways to engage as you browse the vast content and interact with others. You may want to consider joining the new online book club if you haven’t already—it’s just begun (with a new author each month!)—and you can participate at whatever level you wish. Meanwhile, in case you need detailed help on getting started and navigating the site, please use the following link-- http://www.depthpsychologyalliance.com/page/navigating-the-site --and please don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions at all! I look forward to seeing you around the community~Bonnie Bright, Founder
Glad you are finding depth psychology answering and challenging your life. Just came off of a week where two dreams were like bookends for the whole week. The first challenged me in several areas, the week was "hell" (but the song line is "you got to go to hell before you get to heaven") and the end of the week's dream rewarded me for my conscious work and gave me a very hopeful, encouraging message. Great way to start the new year. Would enjoy hearing more about your studies and experiences. Happy New Year.

Welcome Vicki,
Glad you found and decided to join the Alliance. I share your desire to study/experience the soul as an essential, on-going enrichment of life and love. (Wow, that just rolled!!) You mention your work with local groups. What might that be? There are many blogs, forums, and groups covering a wide range of interest so I believe you will find much to your interest.
