A few days ago I began reading the book "Releasing" by Patricia Carrington in its 2007 incarnation. It teaches folks how to release on the *overpush* of emotionality that tends to block one's thinking and acting. I was able to use it to deepen my emotionality, to feel more satisfied with what I had in life, and to do more things generally. As I understand Objectivism, much of it seems to be focused on not letting one's emotions get in the way of one's thinking or actions. I am so enthused about this book that I'm thinking eventually of running workshops where I live or by phone about this process of learning to let go. Since I'm training myself in this area, I thought it might be worthwhile and fun as well to have a free workshop for member's of Galt's Gulch. I'm thinking of a once/week workshop over the phone. No charge of any sort, except for your own phone charges if you don't have unlimited service. I'd appreciate it if interested folks would please email me at mikerael50@yahoo.com Since I'm a fairly friendly guy, I figure this will also be a chance for us to get know another better as well:) Mike
