Three Centered Awareness: A Renewal RetreatLiving with Integrity and Joy To strengthen the connection to your body To deepen the wisdom of your heart and To quiet and calm your mind
Saturday, December 7
9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
held at the Amma Center in mid-city New Orleans
facilitated by AnnaMaria Signorelli, LCSW
These 3 centers are our connection to the physical body, the emotional/relational heart space, and the thinking mind. When in alignment these connect us to the universal. Their alignment is increasingly being recognized within spiritual and psychological communities as the doorway to living a life of integrity and joy.
The schedule will include time for stillness and deep personal reflection, small group discussion, and a little training in tools for daily life.
Cost: $ 100 (or between $100 and $75)
AnnaMaria Signorelli will share insights and techniques developed throughout her many years of work as a psychotherapist and will particularly draw from the successes and explorations of her popular and long standing Joy groups.

Listening in Stillness
Cultivating a contemplative presence for God involves daily practice of spiritual disciplines in solitude.
Because the journey cannot be completed alone, we also practice and learn with a community
of supportive friends. This, for us, is the inward journey: "practicing the Presence of God for personal transformation." Serving in Joy! a response of serving by bringing the Presence into our service. We serve through our chosen vocations and through shared missions. We seek compassionate service with the world. This for us is the outward journey |
