UNITY of Walnut Creek.  A positive path for spiritual living.

Class: The Spiritual Alchemy of Grief  
     
Thursdays at 7:00 pm with Beth Bottorff-Seidenspinner
March 18 - May 6, 2010
Drop-ins Welcome - All classes on Free-Will Donation Basis (suggested donation $10)

Drawing from the works of Elizabeth Kubler-Ross, Carl Jung, and others, this workshop addresses the issue of loss as opportunity for growth.  Grief is an inevitable part of life that can come from many experiences—the death of a loved one, the loss of a job, or a changing relationship, to name a few.  Understanding grief and its impact on mind, body, and spirit, can help us to cultivate balance through even challenging times.
     
In this class we will explore grief through the framework of spiritual alchemy.  Like the medieval alchemists who sought to change lead into gold, we will open to the richness of our own unfolding journey, cultivate compassion, clarity and an awareness of grief’s inherent gifts.
