Sheri’s drawing represents the flow of Love and Compassion as it moves out into the world. How do we care for ourselves? How do we take care of the planet? How do we live in a world full of chaos? It is important to learn the steps necessary to answer these questions. This year our time together will focus on love and compassion for others, the world, and ourselves. Peace inside creates peace in the world. By giving ourselves love and compassion we are able to give it to others. Come join us as we explore our true nature, the nature of our soul.
Healing your Heart through Love and Compassion – Brett Messer & Pamela Scheler
Science is beginning to prove what we have known all along – we are connected. Our thoughts have an effect. Through dialogue and meditative breath work we will learn to give ourselves and the world love and compassion.
Suzanne Greenwood will offer a gentle yoga class that includes beginning yoga postures and breathing techniques to help bring us back to the center of our being. Please bring your yoga mat or a blanket if you don't have a yoga mat.
Bobby Ashworth and Dan Leonard will take us further than ever before in the areas of trust with experiential exercises designed to expand your trusting ability beyond what you thought would be possible. If you have never experienced a 'trust fall" or a "trust walk" you are in for a magnificent treat.
Cliff Buchanan, Brett Messer and Pamela Scheler has some experiential exercises designed to address old wounds both spiritual and physical. It provides a way to identify those issues past and present and to address them (if you wish to) so that the possibility of a healing of those wounds can take place.
