		<description>Byron Katie is *amazing*. Check out her website and start watching the videos of the work that she does with people. It&#039;s really amazing stuff. Her book, Loving What Is, is just lovely.</description>

		<description>My kids are grown but were raised in a blended family. I married my current husban when my kids were teens. In my experience the most important thing is for the step parent be a friend to the kids, don&#039;t try to step in and replace the absent Mom or Dad.  By friend I dobn&#039;t mean put up with unacceptable stuff, but be there for the kid, listen, pay attention, learn from them and hopefully they will learn from you. 

I think I learned more from my kids than they learned from me.

Great links and info.

awesome art!

Best, Ellen</description>

		<description>Byron Katie = totally amazing. I have seen her in London and known of The Work (and been using it) for about 6 years.

One of my friends is currently in the USA, going to do a stint in Ojai (just up the road from you - right?) in a few weeks.

Can&#039;t recommend her enough. Really. It is a way to a more peaceful existence within myself.</description>
