I just returned from an interview with Howard Jones at The Haven. The haven is an alternative clinic and spa. Howard is an acupuncturist from England, and his wife is a naturopath. Here is the link if you'd like to take a look: http://boquetespa.com/
Before our chat I had corresponded with Sarah McLean at the school I am attending, and told her that I was planning to talk to him about doing meditation classes there next year. Since we are not to the point in the program yet where we are instructed on how to hold classes and retreats, I wasn't sure what I was going to tell him. Sarah emailed me a bunch of material on options for classes and retreats. I did a cut-and-paste and put it all into a document. I hardly needed it. We met for only a short time, and he was completely agreeable to having me do this. He said that he and his wife are planning to put together 5-day retreats, and he thought that meditation would be a perfect part of that. I am very, very excited about this - to say the least. At the end of the interview he said, "So, see you again when you're certified," and had a laugh because in the UK being certified means that you are crazy. I think I'm going to like working with this guy. Life is great.
