This group was inspired by Ron L Hubbard who is a genius, scientist and a leader but most importantly he shows how to be the most successful and happy at the same time by freeing our self from our emotional baggage's which comes from past through dianetics.

STILL I have symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Do you find yourself (or others) saying, "you need to get ON with your life" "get OVER it!" Just because its …

I see this Meetup group as a complement to the existing support groups in Suffolk County. It seems that the farther east we get from Nassau County, the fewer opportunities there are for support. I'm hoping to keep a listing of all upcoming epilepsy related meetings and events in the area. If you know of any events I don't have listed, please let me know and I'll add them. Currently, I know of only two supports groups meeting in Suffolk - one at St. Charles in Port Jefferson, and one at Peconic …

Give yourself permission to live your dreams. Share positive thoughts, ideas and awareness as well as an empowering meditation each time we meet. Positive self dialogue becomes powerful when we do it in such a way as to be compassionate towards ourselves. When we use compassion and positive self talk we become empowered rather than depressed and anxious. We are in a time when we realize we are the ones who are going to improve ourselves. Lift yourself up and push yourself in a positive directi …
