“THE MONASTIC WAY FOR MOMS
FINDING BALANCE IN OUR EVERYDAY LIVES”
To mothers, the phrase, “a balanced life” can sound like an unrealistic notion only fully realized in fairy tales. But the rich tradition of monastic life has
a lot to teach us about the reachable experiences of balance and joy. Come explore a new path toward finding purpose in our work, joy in our family
life, and peace with our daily choices. This spiritually nourishing workshop given by Susan Major will include reflections, inspiring stories, practical tools, laughter and, of course, lunch!
