Everything from working with your emotions, moving through conflict, self-awareness, navigating the voice in your head, shame-free creative expression, attentional training and a lot more, all in the environment of game- play, fun and deep connection. I started this because as successful as I was at that age on the outside, I struggled inside with depression and a sense of discon- nection, like so many quietly do, that took years of searching to heal – and found tools that many never find. I’ve fa- cilitated groups over the last decade and have found there’s no time like young adulthood to potently transform your life toward deep well-being. We are now accepting applications for this summer program that will run July 24-August 22, 2022, in Hawaii. If you or someone you know might be interested, please send them to http://sleepawake.camp to learn more. Thank you.” Albert (B.J.)
