At the Midpoint

This workshop is now FULL

At the midpoint between the Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox, this day is an opportunity to reflect on our spiritual lives using different creative modalities.  As the days lengthen and the early signs of Spring appear, what signs of growth do we find within us? In the Northern hemisphere, the various traditions have festivals and rituals to reflect the time of the year.  It is a half way point, and as such perhaps an opportunity to pause for a short time, to consider where we are, and where we have been in our process of spiritual development. 

This time and space is for those who wish to focus on their spiritual life, whether you are committed to a faith tradition or not.  The emphasis is on starting where you are, not where you are not.    During the day there will be times of silence and times of sharing.  Please come open to exploring using art, music, movement, voice and writing to engage with this time. You do not have to join in with anything that makes you feel uncomfortable, but at the same time this may be an opportunity to stretch your edges and try new things.  You do not need to be good at art or singing or moving, just willing to be with the process.  

Caroline Kitcatt is the Centre Director of the Norwich Centre and co-facilitator of the Diploma in Spiritual Accompaniment.   She has a passionate interest in counselling, spirituality, and spiritual accompaniment, and in what the person-centred approach can offer in this area, and this was the subject of her doctoral research.  Her thesis, 'Dancing Barefoot: An exploration of women's experience of the spiritual  accompaniment/direction relationship' can be downloaded from the UEA website  Caroline has recently attended Awakening the Creative Spirit, in the United States, which is an experiential training in the expressive arts for spiritual directors.

 Cost: £60 per person including materials, but you may wish to bring your own journal.  This price does not include meals, there are places to eat nearby or you are welcome to bring a packed lunch.  Limited parking is available at the Norwich Centre.
