Caring for Your Heart: Cultivating Openness and Balance During Life's Busy Seasons
A Summer day retreat of rest, reflection, and art with Emily Conway, Spiritual Companion, and Julia of Julia M Illustrates
Join Emily and Julia for an afternoon of rest and exploration as we look together at the season of summer and our hearts, which can often feel full and overburdened during this busy time. We'll use group discussion, time alone, and art as we learn how to create balance in our emotions, minds, and spirits that will help us to find rest and enjoyment even in the midst of life's demands.
