When was the last time you felt you were enough? We all experience times when we feel we cannot be Enough, when our culture tells us that we can never have Enough, and when we struggle with how to say, “Enough!” in love. Guided by the Courage & Renewal® approach, participants will explore the ways their inner teacher can provide courage and clarity in order to live lives that are truly enough.
Through the course of this in-person Circle of Trust® Retreat, we will explore the ways we understand what Enough means in our lives. Knowing and saying enough helps us focus on what is really important, life-giving and fruitful
Through reflection, conversation, and guided activities, we will practice together what it means to Be enough, Have Enough, and Say “Enough”. These practices will allow participants to cultivate the resources of stillness, gratitude, and healthy boundary-setting.
Based on the work of author and spiritual elder Parker J. Palmer, this retreat provides opportunities to:
- Discover a process for discernment to reach clarity
- Explore the connection between inner landscape and outer world
- Learn healthy ways to embrace paradox and hold tension in life-giving ways
- Be within a community of mutual respect and caring that welcomes the sou
What to Expect: In the retreat, skilled facilitators help to create a quiet, focused, and disciplined space — a Circle of Trust® — in which the noise within us and around us can subside and we can begin to hear our own inner voice. In large group, small group, and solitary settings, we will explore what it means to be enough in our lives, making use of stories from our own journeys, as well as insights from poets, storytellers, and various wisdom traditions.
