Direction

OFFERINGS

Spiritual direction is a process in which an trained guide, known as a spiritual director, assists another person in exploring and deepening their spiritual life, beliefs, and experiences. It is typically done as a one-on-one or small group session, focusing on your personal story, your emotions and your spiritual experience.

Our directors are trained in deep listening, accompanying you on your journey with compassion and curiosity. They honor both the ordinary and the sacred parts of life, offering a non-judgmental space for you to explore your inner world. This process can lead to a profound sense of connection, love and healing.

Our spiritual directors are available for both individual and group spiritual direction, extending a warm welcome to individuals from all backgrounds and belief systems.

  • Individual Sessions: $60-$80/session - sliding scale.

“If you do not have someone to guide you, to hold onto you during the times of not knowing, you will normally stay at your present level of growth.” –Father Richard Rohr

A Circle of Trust® is a small, confidential, and intentional group where individuals gather to engage in meaningful and reflective dialogue. Based on the pioneering work of Dr. Parker J. Palmer, a process called the Circle of Trust® approach has been developed through the Center for Courage & Renewal. These circles provide a safe and supportive environment for participants to explore their inner lives, share their thoughts and feelings, and engage in deep self-reflection.

Circles of Trust

In this circle, participants often use practices such as active listening, storytelling, and genuine conversation to explore questions related to personal and spiritual growth. The aim is to create a space where individuals can be authentic, express their innermost thoughts and experiences, and build connections with others on a profound level.

While Circles of Trust® are often associated with spiritual development, they can be adapted to various contexts and goals, such as personal and professional development, education, or community building. The key element is the creation of a safe and respectful space for meaningful dialogue and self-exploration.

Embodiment

DETAILS

Every Friday, 9:30am at Louisville Community Yoga

The practice of embodiment is way of coming home to ourselves and experiencing our bodies as sacred.

“Remembering and reuniting with our bodily selves is a radical act to undo our need to earn our worth…We need to encounter our physicality and to know that this breath, these hands, these lungs and eyes and cerebrospinal fluid, this body is good.” -Dr. Hillary McBride

Join us for a weekly embodiment class. Together we practice taking up space, listening to our bodies, and feeling into our inherent goodness. It is an intuitive movement class in the context of a beautifully imperfect and accepting community. It is for all bodies, absolutely no dance experience required.

Retreats

Our nature-based spiritual direction retreats offer a contemplative and transformative experience that combines the practice of spiritual direction with the healing and grounding power of nature. During these retreats, participants come together in a natural setting, to engage in one-on-one, and/or group spiritual direction sessions, while immersing themselves in the beauty and serenity of the natural world.
