This eco-spirituality retreat will use hands-on experiences of nature to build (and rebuild) our connections with creation, providing opportunities to practice and share with each other. We will explore prayer and meditation techniques that energize hope, enthusiasm and non-violence in our lives and in our world. A special feature of this retreat is the facilitator’s use of the nature photography of her father, Canada’s highly acclaimed landscape photographer, Malak Karsh.
This retreat will be of special interest to those who desire a deeper spiritual connection with the natural world, for sustenance and hope in a challenging world.
