An eww moment, from an unexpected source

I thought long and hard about posting this.

I am a big believer in supporting other organizations and their missions, especially women's empowerment organizations, and I don't like to badmouth efforts and approaches. There have certainly been times when I've disagreed with methods and sometimes even the outcomes. And I'm sure there are people who've disagreed with the Red Tent's.

(I know this because we've gotten emails. For which I'm grateful...after a few minutes to process.… Continue

Anger Management

Each of us has an overriding emotion, according to experts. Ever asked yourself what yours might be?

Mine has always been anger, but it wasn't until I was diagnosed just under 2 years ago with bipolar (the version that they call cyclothymia, where you experience rapid and abrupt changes in brain nerve cell function, resulting in mood changes - same as Stephen Fry) that I got to work with a psychotherapist and unpack my anger. At the tender age of 51, it was quite an undertaking

Five Crowned Women

On 21st December, 4 friends and I were 'croned' - crowned as elders of The Red Tent - at our monthly meeting. It was a very special time for us all. The ceremony itself was very simple, personalized to fit who we are and the time of year (tissue paper crowns, and red candles, and mulled wine to drink). We listened to a song that's becoming beloved of older women: Susan Boyle's rendering of 'I am who I was born to be' as we sat together, away from the younger women, reflecting on our lives' jour… Continue

The ice in the Arctic Ocean will have completely melted by 2013, and this will affect the ocean currents which keep temperatures from extremes around the world. The temperature of the ocean has ris… Continue
