The Language of the Emotions
2021-02-12 06:30 - 2021-02-13 16:00 UTC | St. Anthony Spirituality Center, Marathon City, WI, United States
emotions – especially the uncomfortable ones we judge as bad – hold a tremendous amount of energy; we’ve all experienced what happens when we repress or blindly express anger, anxiety and fear. Learning to ask the question: “what are my feelings trying to tell me?” can help us to welcome uncomfortable emotions and receive their wisdom so that we can safely and effectively move toward resolution and inner balance, thus promoting a deeper sense of connection with our best selves and those around us.
In this workshop, we will explore how to embrace your full spectrum of feelings – from anger and fear to joy and more – so that you can more skillfully work with your own and others’ emotions with fluency and ease. This workshop experience will include: discussion; visual journaling; writing; guided meditations and visualizations; and more.

Moving Meditation

Moving meditation is any type of meditation in which we are in motion or active.
In this workshop you will discover how deep intention and attention can turn any form of conscious movement into a sacred body prayer to help us better understand the nature and sanctity of this world. By applying present moment awareness and by using movement as a tangible focal point, we are given to opportunity to experience our bodies as a path to the Spirit.
With St. Anthony’s tranquil wooded forest, hiking tails and labyrinth as inspiration, you will experience various forms of walking meditation, as well as standing and nature meditations, slow hand, chocolate tasting, eating, drawing (no art experience required) gazing and sensor meditations will also be explored.
There will be plenty of time for private contemplation and discussion on how any movement-based daily tasks (dish meditation!) can be a way to still the mind and renew the soul.
