How do we find balance in an ever-shifting world?
This time of year offers a unique moment to ponder the meaning of balance in our lives. The sun is poised over the earth’s equator offering an equal amount of sunlight to both hemispheres. For a few short weeks, regardless of where you are on the planet, day and night are pretty evenly balanced.
Put aside aside 75 minutes, Sunday September 24, 10:30 –11:45 am ET and join us online for a gentle exploration of what it means to live with balance in uncertain times.
We’ll pause for meditation and engage with short texts for inspiration. We’ll take time off-screen for quiet, individual reflection and practice listening deeply to one another. We’ll work with the online setting in a balanced and purposeful way, and gentle guidelines will support a welcoming, protected and confidential space.
We invite you to join us and to slow down and reflect on what balance means for you.
“Balance is not a passive resting place––it takes work balancing the giving and the taking, the raking out and the putting in.”
– Robin Wall Kimmerer, Braiding Sweet Grass
Pay What You
We are not separate from nature. Explore ways to open your spirit and heart to the magic that the natural world holds in all its strange, beautiful, diverse, wild glory.
” … names, good names, well used – can help us see and they help us care. We find it hard to love what we cannot give a name to. And what we do not love we will not save.”
Join us for Wildness, Enchantment, and Hope, an online weekend retreat.
