Bring Your Own Demon.
Connect and Heal every second Sunday via Feeding Your Demons® (FYD)
Access the Wisdom contained within your Shadow selves.
Developed by Tibetan Buddhist teacher Lama Tsultrim Allione, Feeding Your Demons® (FYD) is a profoundly effective method for recognizing and transforming the deep-seated patterns, triggers, and neuroses that undermine the quality and enjoyment of our lives.
In an FYD session, you will gain access to a deeper understanding of what drains your energy and preoccupies your mind, and learn how to liberate these patterns.
What Happens in an FYD Group Session?
What’s been bothering you lately? As you consider this subject, you’ll locate that feeling within your body, and describe and personify it. You’ll then dialogue with this personification (“demon”), exploring its true needs.
As you offer, or feed, the underlying need to your demon, you will witness its transformation into an Ally. You will dialogue with this Ally, and receive your Ally’s insights, energy, and light. You’ll finish by releasing and resting.
After a short break to record your impressions, you may share your insights with the group. Our collective wisdom becomes an additional support.
What are the Group Details?
We will gather on Zoom for a maximum of 90 minutes on the second Sunday of each month. We will begin at 6 PM Portugal/Western European time (this converts to 10 AM US/Canada West Coast time, 1 PM US/Canada East Coast time, 7 PM Central European/South African time).
You will need two chairs available to move between as directed. Writing materials will allow you to manually record details. As you will be muted during the process, past participants recommend using a voice recording device to more fully capture your reponses.
These groups are open to all, regardless of any personal affiliation or identity. You need not be a Buddhist nor have any prior meditation experience. To preserve the privacy of all participants, the sessions will not be recorded. The group will be conducted in English.
There is NO CHARGE to attend. If you feel moved to pay it forward, that’s great!

One note: I am a licensed massage and bodywork therapist, and I operate within my scope of practice. Feeding Your Demons® (FYD) is not a substitute for psychotherapy. I work with clients who are of generally sound mental health and who have good support systems. If during our work together I feel you may benefit from the assistance of a licensed mental health professional, I will not hesitate to provide those referrals.
