For many years I had regular Friday night social gatherings of close friends. We'd often vent our frustrations at the stupidity of the system around us that glorified superficial choices and failed to support people.  Sometimes we just hung out, other times we'd work on a project together.  We'd show up at a friends house with five vehicles for  a one-day household move that ended with pizza and laughter instead of frustration and stubbed toes.  We had movie nights and made mead and hosted dinne …

Meditation is a gateway to cultivating inner peace, tapping into our natural wisdom and providing a break from day-to-day stress.  It helps developing our innate ability of awareness and re-connect us with our most natural way of being. Every Tuesday night in downtown Andover, we sit for 30 minutes of guided Vipassana meditation followed by a brief discussion.  Occasionally, we offer other styles of meditation including those based in Qi Gong, Chakras, letting go of past pain and meeting a Spiri …

Did you know that Impressionism came about because of a circle of connected artists?  Or that Virginia Woolf was only one member of the Bloomsbury group?  Throughout time, creative folks have come together to make things.  In the 17th-19th centuries in France these gatherings happened in Salons often run by powerful women.  After NYC, Somerville has the most artists per capita.  It's time all of us creatively-inclined got together to exchange ideas and support.  That's why we created the Somervi …

In this group, we take it slow! Rather than rushing around taking thousands of photos, we learn to stand still, be present and see the beauty of the moment right before our eyes. Then we discover the most astonishing photos are not taken by us, but given to us. Photography offers a path to mindfulness and can be a form of meditation that connects you to the beauty of daily life. In this moment, we feel revitalized, refreshed, and awake! Do you love to just get so into taking photos you loose tra …

Do you want a place where you can discuss your deepest feelings about yourself and the society we live in, in a supportive atmosphere? Many times, the culture we live in frowns upon sharing emotions, problems, anything that's really on our minds. We're expected to put up a front of "Everything's okay" all the time. But this just creates social isolation. The more isolated we are from each other, the more chance depression and anxiety have to breed. I am starting this group because I am not satis …
