Hello again. This is a follow-up to my recent post, concerning the online salon hosted by Shaun Shelly and me, tomorrow at 1pm EST.
I just wanted to remind anyone interested in attending to please register and get your ticket right away. The $20 cost for the first of our salons will be waived if finances are an issue. Please let me know by DM or the “contact” button on the right. Also note that all our proceeds will be donated to SMART recovery.
There is a link for getting your ticket at the bottom of the page outlining tomorrow’s salon.
Hope to see you there!
Shaun and I see addiction as a path that gets easier and more tempting the more you walk it. But it’s a path you can step away from just about anywhere.
Informed by unparalleled neuroscientific insight and written with his usual flare, Marc Lewis’s The Biology of Desire effectively refutes the medical view of addiction as a brain disease. A bracing and informative corrective to the muddle that now characterizes public and professional discourse on this topic.” —Gabor Maté, M.D., author of In The Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters With Addiction
HI Marc, I booked when I read about it and shared on the sobriety forum where I blog. A few members have also registered.
Wishing I’d heard about this sooner, Marc and Shaun! Appreciate both of you and your voices, perspectives. Looking forward to future salons, and chiming in;) – Joanna
p.s. left a link below not to my website but to my newest offering, which is quite resonant with your consciousness, btw.
Hey all. If you missed the first salon (last Friday) you can certainly join us for salon #2, which will be held on March 21st at 1pm EST. Please go to the link shown above and simply navigate to the Tickets button, or go directly here: https://interintellect.com/salon/understanding-addiction-part-two-learning-addiction/
The first salon went extremely well. A great opportunity to listen to each other and update our own perspectives, while sharing our views with others. It was a warm and thoughtful discussion, with many knowledgeable people as well as newbies joining us.
Note again that the fee can be waived, if desired. Just ask, using the Contact button on the right.
Hi Marc, Congratulations to You and Shaun for initiating this SALON Series,
It is works well and seems so appropriate!
Looking forward Salon #2,
Carlton
(BTW-here is an article relating to the topic of Psychedelics that you touched on in SALON #1, it is from yesterdays N.Y. Times SCIENCE section)

Hiya Marc, I really enjoyed the salon, with you and Shaun, last Friday evening. Very well thought out and fluid. Lots of very stimulating discussion and I’m really looking forward to the next one. I’ve been sending the link out to almost everyone I know. See you in a couple of weeks.
