Description:
Evocative exercises and group sharing in a nurturing setting
allow us to remember and write about the most meaningful parts of our life’s
journey. Re-experiencing events from our past, we gain fresh perspective and
appreciation for the richness of our lives. We will write of our experiences at
crucial turning points and share our stories in small groups. Come with
openness to the process, and leave with stories of your spiritual journey and
appreciation for the sacred work of writing and sharing them.
Dan Wakefield is a novelist, journalist, and screenwriter,
whose best-selling novels Going All the
Way and Starting Over were made
into major motion pictures. Bill Moyers called Dan’s Returning: A Spiritual Journey “one of the most important memoirs
of the spirit I have ever read.” Dan’s The
Story of Your Life: Writing a Spiritual Autobiography and Releasing the Creative Spirit are the
basis of popular workshops he leads throughout the United States and abroad.
