Description
We have many ways of knowing within our very being. Spirituality nurtures the knowing and practice of presence, connection, wholeness. Imagination invites us into deep inner wells and expanded ways of seeing and being. This time away by the ocean, as the fall leaves teach us how to be fluent, is an invitation to explore the many languages your soul speaks, remembering that it is multi-lingual and very wise. We will nurture both the bones of our sacred stories and plant seeds of deeper in-sight and ways of encountering the sacred,
In this retreat we will:
-experiment playfully and nonjudgmentally with a wide variety of soul languages through word, body, creative expression, voice, breath, contemplative spiritual practices, literature and storytelling
-return to your body lovingly, in wonder and gratitude
-rediscover your senses and your sensuality
-turn inward again and listen for your deep longings
-join a gathering of others yearning
to slow time and expand their spiritual imagination
Your intrepid guides for this adventure into your spiritual imagination are Susannah Crolius and Marya Lowry.
Our time together will be held both purposefully and loosely,
with plenty of time for personal reflection and renewal.
You do not need to be "arty," "creative," or "spiritual" in any way to find this time meaningful and renewing.
