Cathy Loerzel and I are excited to offer our first StoryWork Weekend!
This Intensive Group experience will include:
6 Hours of Expert Teaching
The teaching content will be focused on understanding how your past story is affecting your present life.
12 Hours of Group StoryWork
Each group will include six participants. You will be asked to write a story of harm or heartache from your growing up years. During the StoryWork Weekend, you will read your story to your group. Your group will be led by a trained facilitator who is highly skilled at engaging family of origin stories. Your facilitator will help you see how your past story is affecting your present life—particularly, your relational and emotional struggles.
Cost: $1600
** Scholarships available for BIPOC participants **
The world is hurting. We are filled with anxiety, shame, depression and hopelessness. Our lives are marked by broken relationships, addictions/compulsions, and emotional pain of all kinds. We are a fragmented society that is finding its only solace in division, dysregulation and distraction.
This is not how we were meant to live, regardless of the circumstances of our current world.
Relational connection and deep joy are possible if we are willing to seek healing by turning to face the harm and trauma that relegated us to this disembodied existence. Part of the way forward is to go back to our family of origin stories—stories that have deeper meaning and impact than most of us care to imagine. By looking back and understanding more of your story, you can tend to the parts of your heart that were left behind but are now in need of healing and care.
With the help of a wise guide (your group facilitator) and a healing community (your group), you can look honestly at your family of origin story and see the ways your heart and mind have been primed to interact with the world.
By exploring your story in depth, you will be released to grieve all that has been lost. This results in a new understanding of your role and impact in your world, as well as a new freedom to make different choices toward health, healing and the rich life of meaning we were all created for.
There is a path toward wholeness. However, it requires engaging your story in the company of other wise guides who are walking the same path.
You do not have to suffer alone. There is hope. Healing is possible.
