Programs at Living Aligned
Fall 2024
Are you experiencing a challenging transition right now? Maybe ...
- Something long anticipated, like retirement or something unexpected, like a medical diagnosis. It’s possible that one prompted the other and you are reeling.
- You are finding yourself in a new role at home, work or in the community that feels somewhat challenging.
- You are finally gathering up your courage to do the thing that your heart has been longing for and your knees feel a little wobbly at the thought of taking the next step.
Whatever transition (or transitions) you are experiencing, join us for some empathy, reflection, learning and support in navigating the ups and downs.
For this Embracing Transitions In Later Life Circle, please fill out this form to help me understand what would work best for you.
After a number of impromptu discussions with many of you, the idea surfaced to invite a small group of people to come together weekly for eight weeks for what I'm calling a learning circle: part course, part coaching, part support group. We'll co-create the agenda based on what is timely and meaningful for everyone present.
After decades of working in this field, I have lots of resources, exercises and tools for us to draw from, along with my own personal experiences of desired and not-so-desired change. A private conversation with each interested participant will help me draft an initial design, a flexible structure that will allow for lots of emergent input and energy. I suspect most of our content will come from our collective experiences, questions and wishes. To keep it intimate and personal, I would like between 6 - 8 people, age 50+ and those who are committed to attending consistently to the best of their abilities.
If this Learning Circle idea appeals to you, but you would prefer a different focus or frequency, please respond to this Application or Wish List form to help me understand your interests. Your answers will help me create another Circle that might suit you and a few other people better. If you are in the Ottawa - Wakefield - Rupert area, an in-person component may be possible.
The Arts Based Self-Care Practice
This Practice was developed for big hearted care-givers who want to practice directing some of that caring energy on themselves and check-in with their own feelings and needs.
Using a blend of elements that include aspects of Mindfulness, Focusing, the Expressive Arts as well as of the Living Aligned framework, this combination of processes gently helps you connect with yourself, your emotional landscape and simply your perfectly imperfect humanness. Check out our Introduction video here.
Most people comment on the extra something they receive by doing this process with others. Most of the time we are off camera,
working in our own private space. Sharing afterwards is always optional.
We've been going for nearly 3 years now. The current members and I look forward to welcoming you to this Practice.
