[The Network] Leading From Within - Finding My Own Voice

Renew your sense of spirit and purpose.  Take timing to sustain and renew ourselves in Human Service Work is vital.

  Consider attending the Courage & Renewal upcoming Women's Retreat 

Leading From Within:  

 Planting the Seeds of Your Own Voice

How does silence and voice shape the landscapes of our lives?

What is the texture of your voice in your personal and professional roles?  

 In what ways do you feel a sense of fragmentation, disengagement or burn out?

Be present to what matters most to you.  Discover your Hidden Wholeness.

 

Our voice can become lost among the interwoven demands of our roles.  Renew your spirit & sense of purpose by stepping out of the frenzied pace of life for reflection and rest ~ to realign your roles and soul.  Come listen deeply to the interweaving threads of your own voice and reflect upon the complexities of voice, such as:  

silence & voice, 

stories I carry & my own story and 

finding life in the "tragic gap" of living between different 'worlds'. 

As every gardener knows, despite our experiences of snow, mud and muck of early spring, 

we plant and tend to seeds of new growth.  What seeds will you plant? 

Using Courage & Renewal Principles and Practices®  (based on Parker Palmer's work), you will experience a safe and disciplined space to explore the tensions that naturally arise in our lives in a more life-giving manner.  You will be invited to reconnect to values, passion and ideals that brought you into a life of service and use the power of your inner life to create authentic capacity in your personal and professional roles. 

Open to all women ~ especially teachers, those in non-profits organizations, clergy and lay leaders, public service workers, and anyone who provides service work to others in formal or informal settings. This retreat will include Clearness Committees, a time for rest, and optional Gentle and Restorative Yoga.
