Healing The Family Tree: An Ancestor And Us Writing Retreat
Teacher: Dorian HaarhoffCost: 2 days accommodation + R350 surchargeDates:
The songs of our ancestors are also the songs of our children. Our stories are gifts we give each other and gifts we leave behind us. For, one day we too will be ancestors. In this retreat we write our stories and place them next to those of our family, immediate, extended and chosen. The idea of family can include not only blood, but our spiritual tradition, culture and the line of those who share our passions. The retreat also touches on healing the family tree and looks at questions such as how we can change the script and create new patterns.View teacher detailsDorian Haarhoff - writer, story-teller, mentor.

Between First In-Breath And Last Out-Breath: The Art Of Story-telling
Teacher: Dorian HaarhoffCost: 2 days accommodation + R350 surchargeDates:Ever since I heard my first love story I have been looking for you - RumiWho is the who that Rumi alludes to? There is something deeply fictional about us human beings. We are the stories we tell about ourselves. Rediscover the lost art of story-telling. Experience the joy, presence, mindfulness and transformation that arrive when we engage with a tale, learn how to craft it and inhabit it. We begin to see our lives as a story, keeping pace with the rhythm of our hearts, balanced between the in and the out of our breathing. Be enchanted by Zen and other tales from many paths.
