Pilgrimage of Soul Cohort
Honoring the sacred rhythms of the seasons or our lives in multi-generational community
Searching for an authentic and sustainable way of living in your own skin in the ever-changing seasons of life?
This series of five evening sessions and one full weekend retreat explores issues of transition, vocation, passion, and underlying life patterns in order to help us live in greater alignment with our values, reconnecting who we are with what we do. Using the rhythms of the seasons to guide us, we will explore the wholeness of our lives, especially tracking how nature speaks as a soul teacher. We will offer poetry and prose, small and large group discussion, journaling, embodiment and mindfulness practices to foster renewal, courage, and trust as individuals and in community with the Front Range of Colorado bioregion. In a closing weekend camping retreat, immersed in the wild, we will offer Clearness Committee, a Quaker communal process for individual discernment.
Who: Open to 15 participants of all ages who are willing to commit to adventure together in a deep soul dive:
♦For those searching for clarity and courage to bring their true self into their personal and professional work and all their relationships.
♦For those individuals who seek conversation and engagement within a community group who actively care about spiritual practice, body/mind connection, and global awakening.
♦For those who are not afraid of their wildness and are hungry to experience more fully their ecological soul place in the world.
This series and retreat will be facilitated by Carol Kortsch, Polly Baker and Will Forsythe.
This series and retreat are based on the work of Parker J. Palmer and the Center for Courage & Renewal. The Circle of Trust approach, described in Palmer’s book A Hidden Wholeness, focuses on cultivating our inner capacity to live a more authentic, meaningful, and engaged life.
