This new 4-part hybrid retreat, offered through and co-sponsored by the Mary Ward Centre, provides a special opportunity for those who want to age mindfully, seek new insights and find fresh, life-giving ways to engage with the world.
Inspired by Parker J. Palmer’s recent book “On the Brink of Everything: Grace, Gravity and Getting Older”, we will use a Circle of Trust® approach, inviting reflection on inner and outer life and using practices developed by the Center for Courage & Renewal. Over the four sessions together we explore themes such as:
- Generativity, legacy and harvesting our lives
- The realities and possibilities of our lives as we age
- Staying engaged with our own soul and with the world
Facilitators: Mardi Tindal and Mike Saver
Cost for the series: $295.00 plus $38.35 (HST). Space is limited to 25 participants.
To register: email Mike at michael.saver@rogers.com including your name, email contact, and phone contact by Friday October 8, 2021.
If public health and safety permits, our sessions will allow for in-person participation at the Mary Ward Centre in addition to the opportunity to participate in sessions online.
