Does your heart hurt in these volatile times? Do you feel stuck, helpless, despair in the face of it all? This immersive experience, designed for participants aged 16 and up, will help with your heartache, uncertainty and worry by grounding and nourishing you in the practices of the “The Spiral Journey of Active Hope: The Work That Reconnects.”
Via a series of Invitations, we’ll explore the Spiral as a practice for getting into right relationship with ourselves, each other and the more than human world, staying in it and living the highest version of ourselves.
This immersive experience, conducted entirely OUTDOORS, is designed for participants aged 16 and up. No prior experience or knowledge required. Just dress in layers and for weather conditions! Additionally, you will be invited to wander out on the land. The terrain will be uneven. Please bring what you need to support yourself during this activity, such as a walking stick or portable seat.
