I am preparing for the New Year by doing an online retreat, Women Unleashed. I discovered the retreat this past August and ended my summer by following this retreat. It proved to be a wonderful way to bring the summer to a close and prepare for the fall semester of teaching. The retreat made a tremendous difference in starting off the semester in a calm, focused way which amazingly continued throughout the semester.
The above photo was inspired by a guided meditation in the introduction to the retreat. Some of the imagery from the meditation was a spiral staircase leading down into the belly, finding a doorway, opening into a field and then a circle of trees. I have recently been creating self portraits in various apps and have found that something deeper within can get expressed in the process. A few of my favorite apps are Pixlr, Enlighten, Waterlogue and PhotoBlender. I have avoided having my picture taken for most of you life, I am generally the one taking the photos. I have found in the process of creating these digital self portraits that certain information is revealed about myself. In the above photo there is this young wounded one whose voice has not fully been experienced. My intention for this retreat is to create a safe playful space for this one to emerge and express whatever may be needed.
The retreat is free and available until January 31,2016 at theradiantmama.com.
