You've heard that the trees are speaking to each other, but what are they saying to us?
In this 6-week interactive course weaving together forest ecology, spiritual insights and experiential practices, we will explore together:
-
What our tree elders know about how to survive and thrive
-
What trees tell us about the importance of living in community
-
Lessons from our elders on loss, resilience, renewal, and gratitude
-
How trees offer guidance on living in the light, dark and in-between times
Proceeds from Center programs help to expand our program offerings and outreach efforts so that we might bring spiritual wisdom in nature to a broad audience. As always, we don't want to preclude anyone from participating due to cost. If you need assistance, please email us at admin@spiritualityinnature.org.
