Friday, Oct 25th, 7pm to 9:30pm
(6:30pm check-in)
Saturday, Oct 26th, 9am to 4:30pm

You will be led through a series of journal exercises which will enable you to gain new insights into the meaning and direction of your life. An important goal of the workshop is to expose who you most deeply are and what your life is trying to become.
A notebook will be provided.

PART TWO: Work with exercises in the second half of the workbook. Prerequisite: part one.

Saturday, Oct 26th, 7pm to 9:30 pm
Sunday, Oct 27th, 9:30am to 5 pm

You will deepen your understanding of life experiences by working with dreams and images, events, and group connections, and through a unique form of meditation which uses the contents of your life as a resource for further experiences.

PART THREE: Now you have glimpsed the meaning and direction of your life from multiple vantage points, it is time to put it all together, to sense larger integrations that have been taking place, and to use your rich inner resources to step more purposefully into the future.

We will invite Maureen back at a later time when she will offer all three parts. Please let us know of your interest.
