Self as a Seed is a six-week introduction retreat to Circle of Trust® retreats developed by the Center for Courage & Renewal. Together we will explore the seed as a living metaphor for the self, holding within it both vulnerability and blueprint, dormancy and potential. What in you is ready to take root? What strength has been quietly forming beneath the surface?
In a carefully guided space grounded in shared touchstones, participants will engage poetry, silence, and open, honest questions to listen more deeply to their inner teacher. During the retreat, participants will have the opportunity to experience a Clearness Committee, a focused time of discernment supported by the group’s attentive listening and honest, open questions.
In a time marked by uncertainty and fear, cultivating a stronger, more rooted sense of self is not self-indulgent; it feels essential. As we grow more grounded within, we strengthen the courage to stand with integrity, respond with compassion, and take our next faithful step in a complex, fractured world.
