It seems all the singles Meetup groups in the suburbs tend to consist mostly of fifty-somethings with a couple divorces under their belts and their kids married or off to college. Leaving the younger crowd forced to head to Chicago for social activities with others in their age range. Not that there's anything wrong with folks over a certain age, they're as active and vivacious as the rest of us. Sometimes more-so. We just want to hang with people of a similar age. There are a lot of young …

This group was started to be the weekly group sit that many find indispensible for supporting a daily meditation practice. The group is non-denominational and any style of sitting meditation can be practiced from Advaita to Zen as long is it is in silence.

So bring your cushion, zafu or bench …

I'm starting this group, because I see other Moms in Brookfield and the surrounding areas and want to stop them all and meet them. That seems a little aggressive, so I thought I would start here and see if I can't meet some fun moms, parents and kids in my neighborhood. I'm always wondering what else is going on in the area for my son to do and hopefully with the combined knowledge of this group we won't miss any opportunity. The goal will be to meet moms, to have play dates with the kids and th …
