Now What? Finding Meaning in the Second Half of Life
Do you have the sense that you have passed a threshold in your life and are noticing a wish to experience something different? Perhaps you have been serving others at the expense of yourself or you've been searching for experiences that haven't resulted in what you imagined. Maybe you have been wondering why your work hasn't been feeling as fulfilling lately. Or you've been having unsettling dreams that leave you wondering what is missing in your life. It may be that you have a voice inside that is telling you there is something more to this life.
We've experienced these feelings and thoughts and have been exploring our own parts related to our needs, dreams, wishes, and the inevitable changes that this second half of life brings with it.
We invite you to join us for a day of exploring, learning, connecting and growing together. Your comments on registering will help guide some of our focus and direction for the day.
These life transitions are sacred and need to be held in community. We look forward to welcoming you in creating this space together.
