"When was the last time you took a moment to evaluate your life and imagine a more fulfilling future? Do you find yourself spending time thinking that the possibilities of change or healing may be out of your reach? If so, you are not alone. Most often we are too busy worrying about our life responsibilities. Some of us are too preoccupied with our long To-Do List. Many of us are feeling just too tired to take on such a daunting task. For others, we just don't know how or where to start such an inward exploratory process. This upcoming 2 part workshop series will provide a safe space where participants can engage in reflectional discussions and experiential exercises around concepts designed to motivate and inspire us toward positive change processes.
