Joan Borysenko: Staying Centered In A Busy World

"A woman, from the time she's ten or eleven years old, has a tension in her life that will continue until she dies, and that is the tension between getting her needs met and meeting other people's needs." Joan Borysenko has been there. She's addressed this tension in her own life, and has words of wisdom, tools and techniques to help each of us avoid th inevitable burn-out that comes when we cross the line between compassion and codependence. She can help you weave rituals and good communication skills into your busy day so that you stay centered, have more wisdom, are more productive, and have more fun. (Hosted by Justine Willis Toms)
