Morning Program (9-11 am)
A Woman's Journey to God
All the world's great religions were developed by men for men. While some of the practices serve us all, women's spirituality as a path distinct to our gender is long overdue. Our biology itself defines a path where rationality, intimacy, intuition, ritual and sharing our stories lead us to the center of the circle where God forever dwells within.
Book Signing from 11:30 am - noon
Afternoon Program (1:30-4:30 pm) Space limited!
Taking the Journey Home Together
In this experimental workshop, we will create ritual, meditation, prayer, song, dance, healing and storytelling that link women together in a spiritual sisterhood. Come nourish your spirit.
Joan Borysenko, Ph.D., has a powerfully clear vision - to bring science, medicine, psychology and spirituality together in the service of healing. Her brilliance as a scientist, clinician and teacher has placed her on the leading edge of the mind/body revolution.
