Date people from United States. What am I seeking? Easy and uplifting companionship. Someone to cook healthy meals for .. Someone to exercise with. Someone to grow and tend a garden with .. To watch movies (substantive and excellent in all the ways cinema can be). Someone with whom to share quiet reading time -across the room; or side-by-side. I'm not looking for a port in the storm -- rather a way for each of us to get closer to who we really are. Our true selves. In the context of our relating. (Did I mention love? Did I mention fun?).
IРІР‚в„ўm wanting to kick back and smell the roses; "loaf and invite my soul". (with a soul mate, eventually in a shared and carefully tended, aesthetically beautiful home.) I am partial to rural settings, but might consider other with enough provocation and invitation.
IРІР‚в„ўm attractive, very intelligent (MENSA); a New York transplant with multiple successful careers in my background, including first woman Account Executive in a large New York Advertising Agency. I have focussed on Consciousness and inner work for 30 years. Currently in Diamond Heart with Hameed Almaas. Have lived in Ashrams and Monasteries; Esalen (2 years) and on a Kenwood Walnut Orchard while earning a second degree as an RN (Acute Psych). Been a Manager at a Hot Springs Resort for over 20 years (Managing a bookstore; curating a "Wisdom Series" film program; Director of Workshops; etc.).
Looking now for a simple life; with friend or partner to share support ... to do the practice of enlightened and enlightening relating.. Living mutually inspirational lives both separatedly and together. I have studied and mastered excellent communication skills and am committed to being Truthful, (from a caring place). In the presence of Enlightened Beings (Eckhart Tolle, A.H. Almaas; Adyashanti) I come alive and more deeply in touch with True Nature. Authenticity is a turn on. As is the capacity to be unconditionally in touch with and accepting of feelings -- whatever they may be. Having fun is also important. Alone I tend in the direction of "serious"; but I do love to laugh, with a good sense of humor developed in the "Borscht Belt". . I so wish to be part of a robust passionate intimate relationship for the long-haul. (two earlier marriages were splendid for short periods; burning hot and brightly-- but did not sustain).
I am committed to staying healthy (good food, regular excercise and plenty of rest). And, to being kind as much of the time as possible...to self as well as others. When reaction happens, my intention is to rein in projections as soon as possible; take responsibility and move towards harmony as quickly as possible. My earlier relational life was highly charged with and largely defined by"lover" dynamics; now I seek foremost a heart connection; mutual respect, a good blend of curiosity, creativity, fun and shared world view. Enjoying being together -- yet, also alone together. I wish us all well on this journey.
