As the weather gets warmer and we move into harvesting season, we will be looking at the Summer of our lives. This ranges from our early 20’s to about 50 – the harvesting time of our own lives. This being the second in our series, we will continue working with Erik Erikson’s developmental stages for this time of life and the notions of grief and gratitude. Please note, each offering stands on its own so you are welcome to join us even if you were not at the Spring event.
The Seasons of Your Life series is designed to help you reflect on the various stages of life from your early years to where you are today - and beyond, up to the time when you leave your physical body.
During "Honoring Summer" retreat, we will:
Bring focus to their relationships and work contributions - noting their successes, less-than-successes, and what all of it brought to their life
Connect with a heart-centered, like-minded group of other women
Recognize the value of contemplation and life review
Gain perspective on where they are and where they want to be in their life
Walk away glad you said “yes” to the day – or your money back!
Lunch will be served, and snacks will be provided
Cost: Sliding scale
Standard rate: $150

For those who need a little help from their friends - a suggested donation of $100

"…the fragments of your life will have time to unify, and the places where your soul-shelter is wounded or broken will have time to knit and heal. You will be able to return to yourself. In this stillness, you will engage your soul."
