A shared time of ritual, spiritual practice, meditation, and conversation. Embracing REality as it is with its grief, anxiety, fear, and anger. Cultivating REverence, gratitude, and awe. REnewing self and collective compassion. Dreaming forth possibilities for REbirth, REsurrection, & new life. Led by Facilitators Patty Forsberg, Adam Luedtke, Marvin Anderson, and Luke Healy.

As we collectively experience the disorder of the current pandemic where covid-19 has touched every aspect of life we are invited into the possibilities of love and transformation. As Richard Rohr says “Picture three boxes: order, disorder, reorder. And that if you read the great myths of the world and the great religions, that’s the normal path of transformation.” 

Explore, discover, uncover, cultivate, imagine, let go, and open up to REorder through sacred conversation and spiritual practice with us during this participatory retreat focusing on four modules:

• Grief, Anxiety, Fear, Anger & Depression
• Gratitude, Awe, Reverence, and Abundance
• Compassion for Ourselves and Others
• Transformation

Contemplative Movement engages our physical selves in spiritual practice to promote wholeness, balancing activity with stillness. 

The practice is accessible by all body types and experience levels. Chairs, mats, cushions, straps, blocks, eye and bolster pillows are used. Each practice may contain elements of body awareness, dance, yoga, prayer walks, breath work, biospiritual focusing, prostration, and silent meditation. 

When cultivated through regular practice, Contemplative Movement is a holistic body-mind training to ease us into meditation and contemplation. It also helps us to engage our whole selves in our spiritual life. 

The practice may draw on the yogic tradition to prepare the body, mind, and spirit for meditation. Our hour long practice will conclude with 20-30 minutes of silent meditation.
