A few days Elon Musk tweeted that “X as humanity’s collective consciousness” and then pinned that meaningless platitude that would only sound profound to a stoned high schooler. Anyway, if you’re going to be “humanity’s collective consciousness” you should maybe try to to avoid making years worth of images inaccessible. But that’s what Musk did […]

Missouri’s history offers a stark contrast to the limited criticism by Republican members of Congress to Donald Trump’s criminal charges.

ALTON - Two Alton business owners have teamed up to create a space for women that blends physical, mental/emotional and spiritual wellness. When Stella Webb, owner of Soul Sanctuary, met Spacious Expression owner Jodi Meisenheimer, they immediately wanted to collaborate. Webb and Meisenheimer decided to start the Women’s Circle, a monthly meetup for women to connect through meditation, journaling and conversation. “I don't see us so much as humans having a spiritual experience, but as spirits having a human experience,” Webb said. “In a circle, everybody’s equal. We all stand and we’re all holding each other, and we’re not there to fix each other. That’s not what it’s about. It’s about allowing a safe space for people to be seen, to be heard, and that’s what’s important.” Soul Sanctuary offers meditations and spiritual advice, while Spacious Expression provides sobriety coaching and support.
