Bindu Maira, the renowned and rather amazing Crystal Healer and Tarot Card Reader talks to us about the power of crystals, how they can work for us in all aspects of our lives and the lives of our loved ones. All of us have read about the power of crystals and can buy them from stores (including the maxiMum store co.) but it is important for us to know what they are, how they bring energy, which crystals are good for which facet of our life, how do we decide which ones we need – how does it really work.

Caferati, the online writers’ forum http://www.ryze.com/networkindex.php?network=bwc
meets again in June at the maxiMum store. The writers bring their work - prose, poetry, essay, any genre or format – to share with the group and accept critical feedback and response. This month, a part of the meeting is being set aside to discuss the art of creating scripts for theatre, cinema and television – a genre of writing with a constant eye on the performance, the medium, the visual space, the directions, the sounds.

If you are a mum – to –be or a mother, you will find the group really useful, interesting and fun. We even have mums of grown teenagers who are members and add their rich experience to the discussions.

We continue the conversation on Joy and Comfort and how women create it for themselves – or don’t! Join the group of women who got together two months ago to meet and read from Sarah Ban Breathnach’s book Simple Abundance, using it as a trigger to discuss many issues that concern us a women, as persons and how in our various circumstances we try (or give up trying) to create our own space and life.
