"Healing Past Relational Wounds: By Mindfully and Compassionately Embracing the Present" with Dr. John Caldwell, Ph.d.

Dr. Caldwell has been practicing mindfulness for more than a decade and it has been an important part of his personal and professional journey. While his formal practice of Vipassana (i.e., to see things as they really are) meditation has been critically important, the application of mindfulness in every-day life has been the most transformative. Over time, he has learned how to incorporate mindfulness techniques into his therapeutic work and how to teach people to use these techniques in their own lives.

This week on the summer series finale of The Local's Show host Erik Skarvan chats with Aspen local musician Dan Sheridan. This a a great one one folks!

Here 's a little bit about Dan that is taken from his website http://www.dansheridanaspen.com

When an artist truly has something to say, others easily recognize it. This is the case with the most recent collection of songs by Dan Sheridan on his new release, Recycle.

Beyond the strong melodies and the effortless flow of words is a simple feeling that these songs may have always existed, and Sheridan's deft touch as a songwriter merely uncovered them. This is the magic of Sheridan's work, and what has made him one of today's most artistic singer-songwriters.

Never resorting to shock value or falling back on time worn cliches, the beauty of Sheridan's work lies in the longing and detachment of his characters in these pastoral landscapes.

And here are some of Dan's accomplishments:

2002 First Place

Rocky Mountain Folk Festival Songwriter Showcase

2001 First Place

Swallow Hill Songwriting Competition

1993 First Place

Telluride Troubadour Contest

Check him out all over the Roaring Fork Valley and if you're lucky maybe he'll swing by your neck of the woods, wherever you happen to be in this world. Again, his webpage is:
