A Year to Live
May 8, 2024 - May 14, 2025
If you have ever wondered…
Who am I?
What do I want in my life?
How can I improve (or repair) my relationships?
How can I be at peace with myself and who I am?
What is holding me back?
Then this program is for you!
Throughout this year-long program, you will develop the ability to make deep, authentic contact with yourself and others. Find the courage to stand up, be honest, and discover what is stopping you from being real. Address, genuinely feel, and work through pain from past and current relationships. Learn ways to reduce the dominance of the mind, and find, in a felt sense, what it is to be still and present.
The following books will be the guiding texts for our profound healing journey:
“A Year to Live," by Stephen Levine
“Nonviolent Communication” by Marshall Rosenberg
“Present Over Perfect” by Shauna Niequist
”What Happened to You?” by Bruce D. Perry, MD, PhD & Oprah Winfrey
You will also receive a gratitude journal for a simple, yet profound daily writing practice. You will also receive the Shadow Work journal that will be the center piece for our inner work and reorganization.
