CHRISTIAN TRADITIONS, SPIRITUAL PERSONALITY, AND HOLY YOGA

-
Come explore how to incorporate the traditional ancient art of reading and praying scripture found in the lectio divina into your spiritual walk - find ways to connect with God that fit YOUR personality. 

SATURDAY JULY 25TH 
9:00 AM - 11:30 AM
 
50$  

Through short tests (Myers Briggs Temperament) and discussion, we will discover our individual spiritual personality bends.  We will discover which practices fit into YOUR soul shape and lifestyle and give you access to more Jesus.
We'll match your spiritual personality to one of a few traditional streams: Franciscan, Tomastic, Ignatian, and Augustinian.
    
We will begin with basic LEVEL 1 Holy Yoga on your mat so make sure to bring it and any props you know you will need! 

This is for anyone who would like to feed their spirit, rest and refuel, and feel a stronger anchor into their True Center.  For those who want to nourish and freshen their connection to God, or those who are just exploring new places of knowing God.

Psychological Approach or Spiritual Approach?

-
Resting in the blend of  spirit, mind, emotions, and body that I dwell in, I come into contact with the edges of this question all the time.  It is easy to lean more fully on one or the other.  Most of us have a comfortable automatic bend toward finding solutions in spirit or material ways.  Robert Mulholland, a respected spiritual formation writer and trusted Christian theologian, expands an answer to this wondering that satisfies my soul.  I hope it illuminates for you as well: "We need to realize that not only is psychology not a substitute for spirituality, but spirituality is not a substitute for psychology. While most Christians would not tend to make the first assertion, many would and do tend to make the second. As we have already noted, spiritual formation is often seen as the answer to all problems.  Often, profound, deep-seated psychological problems are met with demands for deeper faith, more rigorous obedience, more vital spirituality.

Boundaries you Cannot See And Cannot Ignore

Let me begin by introducing you to one of my personal favorite emotional coping tricks.  Prayer Pictures.   What is a Prayer Picture? A Prayer Picture is a term I coined to mean an image or symbol, representing a bigger, more complex or powerful insight that came to you at some point. One of those…an “oh, that is good!” moments or one line from a podcast or a book that was just for you and you know you are going to need it in the future.   When we are on the fly we are zipping through appointments and classes and shopping and relating and debating and carpooling and deal making and number crunching...whatever fills your hustle.  It is my experience that it is pretty near impossible to pull down a complex psychosocial/psychospiritual clarity or coping mechanism on the go.  Our brains are built to serve us on the fly and put us in a sympathetic chemical (autopilot) brain atmosphere.  When we are there, automatic reaction mostly determines choices, behavior, and outcome.  So, in an effort

A Tale of Two Disturbing Poems

I have that feeling…that as we come out of the hush or bustle of the summer, something is presenting itself.  Something that presents Itself with hopes we will say Yes.  Quite often, the fall season calls for a re-arranging, a new-year-esque lens to see our moments, coming and going, what we are up to, our rhythms of rest and work, through.  Examination.  It’s a soul-giving thing to stop and let it do its work.   This poem recently came across my email via more than one list I am signed up to receive…which means you should listen, right?  It is a poem I think we need to encounter in certain intervals of our process…in order to be “disturbed”  toward what is next, in spite of our self-sabotaging settlement in the too small, too known, too safe.   If it is available, gift yourself a moment of stillness and breath.   Get quite inside and when you find you can receive…slowly roll the lines of this poem over in your mind.  You might even practice a lectio divina-like reading of it, maybe
