Soul of Aging Virtual Retreat Series

Soul of Aging Virtual Retreat Series

Living is a form of not being sure, not knowing what next or how. 

The moment you  know how, you begin to die a little. 

The artist never entirely knows. We guess. 

We may be wrong, but we take leap after leap in the dark. 

~Agnes de Mille

The Soul of Aging is a small-group program based on the work of Dr. Parker Palmer and The Center for Courage & Renewal.  It is for anyone yearning to explore the joys, challenges, and gifts of the aging process; to surrender to, and be transformed by the aging process. We will create and hold a safe space in which we may seek a deeper understanding of how to age well, with dignity and integrity.

Threads of Light: A Winter Solstice Retreat (Virtual)

Threads of Light: A Winter Solstice Retreat (Virtual)

SAVE THE DATE! REGISTRATION INFORMATION WILL BE COMING SOON!

We are living in dark times, and yet the darkness is revealing truths that we have known for a long time, but have not faced directly. The winter solstice offers us a moment to look back at where we have been, and then to turn around to begin our journey through the darkness of winter looking for the insights and threads of “light” we need for this time in our lives.

This retreat, “Threads of Light”, will explore the visible and the not so visible threads that serve as guides in the darkness. Darkness can be mysterious, calming, frightening, or mystical. For some, darkness creates a cloak of doom, for others, it is a nourishing sanctuary. How do we hold fast to the threads that hold us together and serve as guides when it’s difficult to see? How do we find our sanctuary in “the darkness”? 

“I have learned things in the dark that I could never have learned in the light, things that have saved my life over and over again, so that there is really only one logical conclusion. I need darkness as much as I need light.”
― Barbara Brown Taylor, Learning to Walk in the Dark

Retreat Details & Registration Information: 

We will be limiting the registration for each retreat to 21 participants so we can see everyone on the screen.

  • Cost: $125 

  • Dates/Times (in US-Pacific Standard Time)

  • Friday, December 10: 6-8pm

  • Saturday, December 11: 9:00-12noon; 2-4pm; 6-8pm

Moving Landscapes: An Online Circle of Trust Retreat for Early Summer

“The movement from one place to another, from one form to another; the transition from one language to another – the loss and gain involved with these movements. Fragmentation of time, images, landscapes, dreams, expression, language, self and everything connected with the self. The uncontrollable moving that everything does in relation to a stationery ‘I’. The physical act of picking up and moving the landscape and all it contains.” (Pasquale Verdicchio, Italian-Canadian poet, critic and translator)

Elder Wisdom: Staying True to Gravity, Grace, and the Given A Virtual Circle of Trust Retreat

“Enough. The job is done. Whatever’s been uprooted, let it be Seedbed for the growing that’s to come. I ploughed to unearth last year’s reasons – The farmer ploughs to plant a greening season.” 

(Parker J. Palmer)

Join us for some days of gentle and spacious reflective time, from the comfort of your own home, March 20-21 & April 24-25th. We can connect with our soul’s journey into elderhood, into wisdom, and into our own time of change and transformation. As individuals on our own soul journey and with our own stories, this retreat is an opportunity to share our learnings, hopes, responsibilities and perspectives in life-giving ways; to reflect on ‘the art of aging intentionally’. Through conversation, creative process and deep listening we hold space for each other to (re)discover our elder wisdom and how it might guide and sustain us in the continuing unfolding of our lives. Feel free to reach out for additional information to: kirstin@nourishcourage.com. This is an international retreat. Posted times are in Pacific Standard Time, currently.
