Loving the discussion... and noticing that it hasn't been mentioned what the 'client' wants/expects....as a therapist of various hues, I find it a growthful experience working out some sort of agreed/shared understanding of what we are both doing th…

I am wondering, Jules, if you are familiar with cord-cutting procedures? This is something that I would think would be generally useful in spiritual companionship. I find it the single most useful technique for helping to resolve relationship diffic…

Quite unwittingly, I believe Juliet and I enacted a very interesting example of spiritual companionship in our conversation on 4th November - mainly on my page. After picking up her comments on the issue of welcoming newcomers, I made a suggestion t…

Hi Naomi! Hope all's well with you. There's something I'd very much like to ask you, and wondered if you had been able to receive a friend invite with a comment, as I need to add you as a friend ( which of course I'm happy to do but am not focusing on the 'friend' thing on here , as it were) before I can send you a personal message. Many thanks , J

Hi Naomi . thank you for raising the 'Spiritual companion 'topic. there's much i'm seeking , including those! That specific term isn't one i've come across. I'd like to find out more in due course.

Hi Naomi, Thanks for your warm welcome. Connection is a wonderful thing, isn't it? I was never really into NING or Facebook, but now I'm wondering ... :-)
Much love x x

Hi Naominx, glad to see you signed up, enjoyed reading your About Yourself - which is a new facility recently put up - but couldnt help noticing the word Manger which made me smile :) as you are a holistic Jew in a Christian culture with a husband doing interfaith services! Do the dogs follow a spiritual path? Nigel x
