* Embracing Change: Zen & the Art of Creating a Life You Want

Saturday, September 12th 9:30AM - 3:30PM PST

with Rev. Liên Shutt

At certain times in our lives, it can feel hard to know what to do. Are you at a point in your life in which you feel like it’s time for a change but not sure how to proceed?

Change can be hard. Especially if it’s not one that we’ve chosen: a job or relationship loss, an illness, or other life-transition events. At such time, thinking about all the possible options can feel confusing: “Should I do what I’ve always wanted to do or stay with what I know? Go towards my ‘heart’s desire’ or get more training?”
