Life of the Spirit, Part A
Saturday, May. 6, 2009
Spirituality has been a proven positive impact on mental health.  But even people who value spirituality and long for a deeper connection with God may find that their current spiritual routines seem to be missing that high mark.  This seminar-retreat helps you explore in a very personalized way the spiritual traits, feelings, and goals that will help infuse your life with a deeper connection with the Sacred. 
 
Life of the Spirit, Part B
Friday, Aug. 14, 2009
For spirituality to sustain us over a lifetime it must evolve with us, and with the changing patterns of our lives.  It must respond to the challenges of doubt, betrayal, and loss, as well as continue to unfold new opportunities for delight, satisfaction, and meaning.  This seminar-retreat will explore the challenges of spiritual discernment and spiritual disappointment, and help you deepen your capacity for both spiritual solitude and spiritual community (Part A recommended first).
 
Forgiving Others
Saturday, Sept. 19, 2009
Families and friendships, our places of safety and care, are also the sites of our keenest injuries When facing the nearly universal experience of betrayal , how do we forgive? Some forgive too easily, compounding our injuries; others withhold forgiveness, leaving us bitter and estranged. This seminar-retreat invites you to identify a betrayal or injury that calls for forgiveness(you don't have to say what), then analyze it in sufficient detail to make substantial progress toward forgiveness, empowerment, and resolution.
 
Forgiving Ourselves
Saturday, Nov. 7, 2009  
Forgiving ourselves can be even more challenging than forgiving others. When we hurt, deceive, or disappoint ourselves or others, how do we forgive ourselves and move on without denying the legitimate claims of those we injure? This seminar-retreat will help you clarify your life philosophy, make called-for changes, know how to effectively apologize and make amends, overcome psychological barriers to self-forgiveness, and gain greater self-acceptance despite past mistakes.
