New Virtual Events Announced: Mirabai Starr, Mosaics, Deep Self Care

We know that it has been a cold week out there. We hope that each of you are safe and warm and we hold in our prayers those who are struggling in these times. With New Mexico's Covid case numbers decreasing and vaccinations increasing, we look forward to a forthcoming date when we can welcome guests and programs on site again. Until then, we will continue to make available engaging virtual offerings with quality instructors. Here are some new courses we are excited to announce coming in the weeks ahead. Keep an eye for other new offerings through Featured Events on our website.

VIRTUAL: WRITING YOUR STORY OF LOSS & TRANSFORMATION with Mirabai Starr Tuesday, March 23 - Wednesday, March 24

During this two-day virtual gathering, we will be exploring the transformational power of difficult passages, the sacred invitation to radical unknowing, and the soul’s longing to speak in her own voice. Mirabai will offer brief teachings on memoir, focusing on writing about and from grief and loss, and offer potent writing prompts. We will share our work in small groups and with the full circle. Expect to generate a large quantity of material in a short time, from which you will be able to do what Michelangelo said: I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.
