Feng Shui and Crystals at the United Nations

Today Reo and I attended a conference deep in the underbelly of the United Nations complex called Bio-Energetics: Panel Forum Discussion for Transformation, Spirituality and Wholeness. We sat in high backed chairs each with a microphone in front of us as experts on Feng Shui, Astrology, Crystals, Yoga, etc. spoke about their theories and practices and the potential for global application. The conference was arranged by the United Nations Staff Recreation Council Society for Enlightenment and Transformation; the folks who orchestrate extracurricular activities for UN staff. I suspect that a majority of large employers provide their staff with extracurricular opportunities like softball leagues, family bike ride days, fall hayrack rides, Christmas gift exchanges, and company picnics. Not at the UN apparently.
