Presenter: Caroline MyssThough we have been a society of spiritual seekers for decades, we remain in many ways spiritual nomads, still searching for our right sacred lodgings. What exactly are we looking for deep within us? How do we even identify our essential spiritual needs? Would we even recognize an experience of the Holy? And who do we turn to when matters of the spirit arise within us? How do we discern psychological sufferings from a spiritual crisis? These are the questions that rightly belong to the world of Spiritual Direction. It is no surprise to me that so many people circle the deep waters of the soul, fearing the urge to jump in. Intuition tells a person an escort is required for deep water pursuits of the soul. That is a truth that has been known for centuries. It is no wonder then that the art of Spiritual Direction is making its way into the mainstream of our society and many people are gravitating to Spiritual Directors. It is so common today, for example, to search for the purpose and meaning of one?s life. A Spiritual Director is likely to guide you in the quest by first directing you to articulate all that has meaning for you and who has meaning for you and to examine why ?meaninglessness? has first slipped away. In this workshop, I will introduce you to the rich world of Spiritual Direction and how I work with this beautiful art. I will guide you on some profound questions to think about that can put you in touch with your own spiritual path and essential spiritual needs. I believe Spiritual Direction offers a path of healing and self-knowledge unlike any other a person can find in today?s world.
