Saturday, September 21 9:30am - 12:30pm Suggested donation: $40-60 Facilitated by Dawn Stegelmann
In these divisive and unsettling times, nature steadfastly offers us ways to affirm life and remember our kinship with creation and the unique gifts each of us is given. Letting nature be our companion, this program will encourage us to explore what is divided within us and our longings for wholeness and harmony in ourselves and in the world. Weather permitting, we will spend time outdoors exploring the land, enjoying some simple body movements, and examining a personal story or two that perhaps has an inspired meaning at this time in your life. The world is full of God and we are invited to sense, feel and recognize the divine imprint in all beings.
Following this experience, participants will feel a stronger sense of connection to nature and their own narratives through the program’s experiential and contemplative practices

WorthWild’s mission statement Nature never questions our worthiness. We share a kinship with nature, and we will never be asked to prove ourselves to receive nature’s offerings and bounty. Next time you question your worthiness or experience feelings of self-doubt, go outside to remind yourself you are part of something so much bigger. Nature will always embrace you the way you are. You offer your own unique gifts to the world and are worthy of the joy, happiness and peace you seek. You are loved. You are WorthWild.
