Crafting an Authentic Life

We are all walking unique paths as we live our lives to the fullest. As we make choices and commitments, we are taking an active role in creating our lives (whether we are aware of it or not!).

As we walk our spiritual paths, our relationship paths, our career paths, and more, it is always nice to have a companion to walk along side us - someone who can be a compassionate witness and gentle guide, who can be a friend in the difficult times and help celebrate the joys and achievements.
             
Through one-on-one work and in groups, I am honored to be that unconditional, compassionate companion, to help you on your life journey.

Some tools I use: dreamwork, art-making, coaching, spiritual direction and meditation.
             
Here are some of the opportunities being offered this season:

Dream Groups      

Our dreams always come in the service of health and wholeness (even the nightmares!) and sharing our dreams with others in a group format can be a powerful and essential way to gain new perspective and understanding of the inner life our dreams.

This is a "closed" group, so that we all can get to know each other, week after week and create a sacred space and community for 3 months.
             
As in all dream groups I facilitate, we will use the projective method ("If it where my dream" format).

Dream Art Groups

Art-making with dreams can be a powerful practice in finding new levels of meaning in dreams and their images as well as encouraging and freeing the innate creativity we all share. Bringing art and dreamwork together can help us overcome obstacles that are holding us back from being who we truly are, as we honor our own transformation.
             
This Dream Art Group includes sharing and working with dreams and creating art projects related to the dreamwork. NO ART SKILLS REQUIRED!

In this group we will do dream work using the projective method (the "if it were my dream" style), much like a "regular" dream group, with the added bonus of working with art as another tool to do dream work. The actual art-making will be done by each participant at home, but we will come together and bring our artwork to share with each other and be "worked" like a dream, in addition to sharing actual dreams with each other.
             

Drop-In Dream Group

This is the on-going dream group I facilitate. This is a great group for those that would like an introduction to projective dreamwork, cannot commit to a class series, or have missed the window to sign up for a series. This group has more of a "drop-in" feel (but please register as space is limited). The person who gets to work a dream is selected randomly, but all benefit from this transformative work.

As in all dream groups I facilitate, we will use the projective method ("If it where my dream" format).
             

Group Spiritual Direction

Group Spiritual Direction is a wonderful way to find spiritual community in a comfortable setting. No matter what your spiritual path is, communicating together in an Interfaith setting can bring a deeper experience to our spiritual lives.

In past gatherings we have: discussed spiritual books; learned the history of various holidays; shared spiritual conflicts or issues to receive advice or guidance; experienced new spiritual practices; and shared new art projects.

Any topic is up for discussion! What would you like to talk about?

One-on-One Spiritual Direction             

Join me in Petaluma and give yourself the gift of a compassionate, unconditional companion on your life path. Together we can explore your dreams, intuit the next step in your spiritual life and bring more creativity into your life journey.

My approach is truly Interfaith. I companion those who are agnostic, working the 12-steps, gardeners, and more as walking a spiritual path - and it is always nice to walk that path with a friend!
