Do you dance madly on the lip of the volcano regarding your own research, or would like to research a particular topic that you feel might have a non desirable personal outcome?

Do you know someone who does these things?

If so, you should come to this session and learn about some new process and relationships where more people can benefit than before.

NOW, FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER- NOT IN UNDERGROUND!

Welcome to the new age of Glasnost and the end of an era.
