Spiritual Direction Groups
What is Group Spiritual Direction?
”There is strength in numbers,” so the saying goes. Groups provide a unique and dynamic setting for spiritual development. Often we gain powerful insights into our own lives as we hear the struggles, solutions, and celebrations of others.
Group Spiritual direction is a guided process that helps you to listen deeply to your life, to access your spiritual life more easily, and to frame your life as a sacred story. As stories are shared and observations are offered, insights and possibilities are awakened out of the whole in a way that isn’t possible by you alone.
It’s like a container
You likely will experience being held and inspired by the “container” of the group. Each person is asked to bring a spirit of giving and generosity to the group. There is a transcendent quality to many groups in which your limiting beliefs transform into empowering self-awareness, and you gain courage from others to be your authentic self in the world.
How groups are structured
As the facilitator of the group, I give careful attention to the process, I safe-guard interactions, and I serve to draw out the wisdom of the individuals and the group. I believe you are your own, best resource for matters of the Spirit, and I support the uniqueness of each group member.
I tailor our sessions to honor the needs of the group, using tools such as dreams, readings, meditation, prayer, soul cards or art. It is my aim that we explore deeply, honestly, and that we even have some fun in the midst of it all.
In each group we agree to confidentiality so that what is said in the group stays within the group. Some groups meet in person, and others meet over Zoom or the phone. You can contact me if you have interest in being a part of a group (I keep a list of interested individuals), or you can form your own group and call upon me.
