Description:
Our ability to communicate openly, honestly, and kindly is a core part of the contemplative path affecting our minds, relationships, and quality of life. Join us for this unique day retreat to develop more skill and flexibility in this area. We’ll explore a range of methods to draw on the wisdom and strength of our body as a tool for more authentic self-expression. You will learn methods to sense and maintain personal boundaries, to discern what is authentic, and to express it in clear and creative ways. The day will include a combination of guided meditation, journaling and interactive exercises.
Teachings are appropriate for health care professionals as well as the general public. Health care professionals will be able to incorporate the tools and practices offered in this program in ways beneficial to clients or patients. Continuing Education (CE) credit available.
