How are you faring in these times of change and uncertainty? Are you feeling disorientated or ungrounded as a world you believed you understood shifts and reconfigures – the world of your workplace, the political landscape, the global equilibrium? How are you navigating these new realities; how are you finding balance; how are you breathing? Where do you find home in the destabilizing space and time that has opened?
We invite you to participate in this series of monthly retreats, guided by the Courage & Renewal® approach.
We will co-create a sacred, confidential space in which to do our own inner work in solitude and community.
We will have the opportunity to listen generously to our inner teacher (soul, spirit, still small voice, inner voice, identity and integrity) and to one another in small groups and the whole group, speaking from the heart. Since a Circle of Trust® is enriched by metaphors, we will reflect on “third things”: poetry, prose, images, and video. The quality of the space is shaped by the practices that everything we do is invitational, and there is no fixing, advising, saving, or correcting. Instead listening generously and learning to ask open, honest questions open new doors in our relationships with self and others as we journey towards finding home.
In this circle, we will support each other in finding the courage to live with integrity, with purpose and with hope at this transformational time. The invitation is to take time each month to sit with the questions which are arising in us. What does it mean to be an educator? How do we want to teach, learn and live? Who will we be to each other in our workplaces, our communities and our world?
