Daily Nourishment

October 15, 2021


"Our breath is such an intimate companion. One that sustains us moment by moment even as we are entirely unaware of that sustaining gift. Yet when we bring our intention to it, it also becomes an ally for slowing down, for touching stillness."


--- Christine Valters Paintner, PhD, Breath Prayer: An Ancient Practice for the Everyday Sacred


What sacred words do you intentionally connect with your breath, as gateways to mindful presence no matter what activity you are engaged in?

Join us for an Advent online companion retreat to the book. 

Writing with the Ancestors


with Christine Valters Paintner

Saturday, October 30, 2021

9-12 Pacific

12-3 Eastern

5-8 pm Ireland/UK time

Join us for this 3-hour online mini-retreat in time outside of time. The days around late October and early November are especially sacred in the Celtic tradition, when the veil between worlds is thin. The Christian tradition celebrates November as the month of the dead. It is a threshold time, when the old falls away and the new is coming into birth. When heaven and earth kiss. As the nights grow ever darker in the northern hemisphere we are invited to listen for the voices of the saints and ancestors.
