“ Community is the guru of the future.”
~ attributed to Thich Nhat Hanh
When we come together in small groups we have opportunities to share our own hard won wisdom as well as learn from one another in a peer setting. Groups give us a place to practice being grounded and present while interacting with others and honing communication skills. As a trained facilitator and mediator, I guide group discussions and exercises designed to uncover personal insights as we build community.
Self Recognition and Acceptance
We will work with issues of self awareness, accepting and loving ourselves as we are while holding the paradoxical value of personal growth.
Path and Practice
We will discuss our spiritual paths and help one another to find practices that work with our complex modern lives.
Sacred Sexuality
We will explore our relationship to our own sexuality in the context of cultural expectations and our own authentic edges.
Reclaiming Leadership and Power
As collaborators and allies, we will work together to support each other’s leadership paths to develop personal power, intuition, charisma, facilitation, mentorship and presentation skills, as well as explore shadow issues around conflict, self promotion, confidence and money.
Aligned Communication
When our hearts, souls and minds are in alignment we speak with both power and compassion. In this group we will practice speaking and witnessing one another’s truth with an ear towards improving our communication style.
Pagan Parents
It really does take a village to raise a child. In this (adults only, but nursing infants okay) group we will share strategies, laughter and hints for how to get through those difficult stages: infancy through university.
