The Meeting Point
In The Biorhythm Kit by Jacyntha Crawley the biorhythms of Van Gogh were studied in detail, using his letters and covering one year of his life. ... It's 1998, on a meditation retreat in Devon called 'Awakening the Heart'. Margaret is meditating when, suddenly, Margaret feels a current of energy that seems to rise up deep from within the spine. It rises to the head and then falls. As a Buddhist for many years Margaret knows that there is nothing to be afraid of in the inner world. She connects fully with what is happening. The experience ends when she releases her feet from her meditation stool and surrenders to what she has called 'THE LIGHT'. Below is a photo of Jacyntha Crawley and Ian Moseley, the 2 main directors of The London Biorhythm Company , sponsor of "The Meeting Point". The picture was taken at a recent birthday party for Dr. Imke Halberstadt. Imke is an active Toastmaster. Margaret is meditating when, a member of the Athenians Speakers Club, she went on to found Harrovians, the Toastmasters Club based in Harrow, Middlesex, Greater London, UK. Jacyntha Crawley has studied biorhythms for some years. She wrote the best selling The Biorhythm Kit which can be bought on the Biorhythm Sales page. Sections of The Biorhythm Kit can be browsed on Google Books. The Biorhythm wheel forms a major part of The Biorhythm Kit. This Biorhythm wheel was featured in the Australian made TV programme "Beyond 2000", seen in over 78 countries. Jacyntha writes for magazines and newspapers in the UK and abroad, and is a member of both the Society of Authors and NAWE (National Association of Writers in Education). Jacyntha is an experienced broadcaster, and a public speaker, and recently discovered she is written up in Wikipedia in China! Recently Jacyntha has had the the interesting experience" of being recruited to integrate "biorhythms" into mainstream toothpaste! who finds it hard to blatantly self-promote! So, we decided it would be easier, and more beneficial to everyone, if we introduced ourselves through the people we know, and the organisations we belong to! Jacyntha is an Honorary Member of the London IVC. London IVC is the social club where Jacyntha Crawley honed her organising skills, including setting up, and then managing, a weekday volunteer cafeteria, "Burnt Offerings", Members cooked evening meals for others. Intervaristy Clubs are a string of not-for-profit voluntary social clubs across the UK. Within Intervaristy Clubs members volunteer to organise events for others. Here is a link to the most northerly IVC in Britain. By the entrance of the National Trust owned Claremont Landscape Gardens, outside Esher, Surrey, is a plague documentating helpers and groups which worked on the restoration. Claremont Gardens had been overgrown and was a complete wilderness for many years! "More bridge building"! Members of the practical conservation group of London IVC were amongst the original helpers. In exchange, Jacyntha Crawley, founder of the London IVC conservation group, was able to negociate the first, all encompassing, Age Link gathering. This was held by the lake at Claremont. Tea and cakes were included! The photograph above shows an Age Link member; Geoff Tomlinson, one of the founder members of Age Link ; Jacyntha Crawley and the then Deputy Warden at Claremont Gardens.

"In this book Margaret Dempsey shares a frank and often brutally honest account of her own spiritual journey along with some essays she wrote about insights she gained along the way.
In the first part we follow her from her choice at 11 years old to go to a catholic boarding school to her first introduction to Buddhism, a trip to India her first mild kundalini experience which was followed by a much stronger and persistent experience during a meditation retreat, a second trip to India and finally her involvement with the Landmark Forum in London.
In the second part Margaret shares what she feels are the most important things she has learned on her journey. Margaret talks a lot about her challenges, doubts and confusion along the way and stresses that you don't have to be special to follow a path to enlightenment.
There is always some value in reading about other people's journey's and a book like this will often answer questions you didn't know you had or strengthen opinions that have already been formed. For me this book did both".

Jacyntha Crawley is a "bridge-builder". When volunteering at London IVC the need for a permanent group, which later developed into the registered charity, Age Link , became apparent.
