The Second Half of Life (see
pdf flyer) (adapted from the work of Angeles Arrien and her book The Second Half of Life) Note to reader: Cross culturally 36 is the turning point of the Second Half of Life! This eleven month journey offers women an opportunity to join together in an exploration into what it means to be living in the Second Half of Life in these changing times. We inquire into and transform outdated ideas of what it means to be an elder in this culture, through themes of changing identity, meeting new possibilities, sensuality and the changing body, relationships as spiritual practice, legacy making, creativity, integrity and authenticity, integrating life experience and letting go. We show up and answer the call to be wise stewards and mentors. We track our life’s journey and make meaning from the threads we unravel and re-weave into living a more embodied and authentic life. Each month offers an evening gathering to open one of the Eight Gates of Initiation in The Second Half of Life. Embodied practices are offered to integrate the body in all of our explorations and to open the portals of perception to fresh ways of meeting what arrives at this time of our lives. A three day
optional retreat is offered in the autumn of each year to deepen through
dreamtime explorations, time in nature, silence and deep listening. These
retreats are in Paradise Found, a 6 ½ acre sanctuary on the Sunshine
Coast, where the eight gates are tangibly created to integrate further
through the magic and power of the imagination. Days of Retreat in Paradise Found will also be offered throughout the year to support and encourage a deeper play and exploration through expressive arts, movement and inquiry. Participants in the Second Half of Life will receive a reduced rate for these days. |
