"What I really love about this program is the opportunity to be in a community of other like-minded spiritual seekers. I love the readings, I love the texts, I love the opportunity to gather in community to have really meaningful conversations. It almost feels sort of like a secret club in a way. I’m so grateful to be able to hold sacred space with other people, I find this to be a very grounding and nurturing space. " ~ student, Tzipporah

Saturday, July 17:  10:30 am - 12:30 pm (Eastern Daylight Time)
This September, Zeitgeist will begin the fifth cohort of the "Exploring" group spiritual direction program. We create community by meeting monthly for a few hours to learn, share, and connect with one another. The program has assigned materials, and participants come together to engage on a different theme every month. (More details here.)

We want you to have the chance to experience group spiritual direction for yourself. For this introductory session, our timely topic is "Inside/Outside"  - what are the literal, metaphorical, social, poetic, musical, political, ecological and of course Spiritual ways to explore  "inside" and "outside"?
  • We'll begin with a brief moment of silence to collect ourselves and be together with intention
  • We'll invite everyone to share a bit about yourself, a little about your spiritual paradigm, and what grabbed your interest about the group.
    • Remember, our groups include ordained clergy, those who have walked away from formal religion, folks from a variety of traditions, and seekers of all sorts - we just ask that you bring a genuine commitment to respecting others, and a passion for meaning-making. Safety is paramount.
  • We've got a few prompts to get the discussion going, and to keep things moving - we're big fans of music and poetry. The discussion will be facilitated to encourage everyone's engagement, but you get to choose how you participate. (Because... safety. :) 
  • Bring any questions you have about the program, how it works, who it's for, how this all got started, etc... We know the answers!
  • We'll close out with some connecting thoughts and give y'all the last word on what you're thinking and feeling.
