What Color Is Your Spirituality?
“Be everything that you are unapologetically; most of you will find out that you are not just one color, you are a rainbow.” ~ Mridula Singh What Color Is Your Spirituality? Perhaps, a question we don't often ask ourselves. Yet, our unique answer to such a rhetorical question can be indicative of the path we are on in life. It can speak volumes about the losses we've weathered, the seasons in our relationships and commitments, and our greatest joys and challenges being alive at this time in history. Join us for a sensory-engaging and soul-nourishing evening, where a diverse exploration of these themes will unfold in and through color play, spiritual practices, and group discussion. With visual-oriented exercises that promote creativity and reflection, you will be invited to connect spectrums of vivid, rustic, and earth-toned colors to the diverse contours of your life story. You will also be invited to center your awareness in the deeper, spiritual meaning of colors while interpreting them through the seasons of your life and re-envisioning the growth-enhancing experiences of your journeys. Our time together will include engagement with storytelling, playful experimenting with color, and a meditative exploration of the diversity, beauty, and spiritual significance of color. Participants will benefit by cultivating an enhanced and richer understanding of their identity, the possibilities before them, and where they perceive they are being called/directed in the present moment and within their lives. Join Gordon for this colorful, intriguing, and insightful look at your spirituality from the cool comfort of your home. Please bring along a journal for writing prompts and either colored markers or pencils for some of the program’s exercises. What better way to spend a hot summer evening!
