Ethics and Our Transitioning Times 
April 16th, 2010 
9:00 AM-1:00 PM, 149 Simpson Road, Bar Mills, Maine
$55.00 (4 Contact Hours) 
 

A half-day workshop When attempting to explain and interpret the striking times and cosmic patterns now at hand, we all struggle. This is especially true among those of us working in the spiritual arena, who see triple whammies again and again in the lives of our clients - clients who want to know what is going on in their lives as the collective world around us comes apart at the seams. Can we share, do we share, what we really feel? Our distinctively modern ethical issues such as bartering, moral/ cultural relativism, boundary crossing, and consumption do not always fall cleanly into ethical guidelines. We are constantly being challenged and asked to re-define "what is ethical practice?" In this seminar we will touch upon:   

  • Distinctly modern ethical issues such as moral/cultural relativism and consumption can tempt boundary violations and boundary crossing;
  • Self-disclosure as a necessary and effective therapeutic tool;
  • Bartering as the way of the future;
  • Why we may not be able to avoid the dual relationship;
  • The complexity of certain ethical decisions: which are difficult and far from clear-cut and yet present the need for an ethical understanding which is both humane and timely; and
  • Ethical standards as we navigate the transition from the current way of life to the one that is being imposed upon us. 
Reading the Bones

Come to the edge.
We might fall.
Come to the edge
It's too high!
COME TO THE EDGE!
And they came,
and he pushed,
and they flew.
 
~ Christopher Logue, English poet

We 
are at the edge. Sometimes all we need is a gentle shove to help us change direction, see what we have been missing, or see old things in a new way. When we try to interpret these striking, often chaotic, times and cosmic patterns now at hand, we all struggle.
 
Deep within us we have a connection to the Divine that transcends our intellectual trappings, our ego, and our personalities. That connection instinctively shifts us into the act of looking for and asking for guidance.  In other words, we unconsciously recognize that there is something greater than "us."
 
While there is much we do not know, there is much we can - with a little foresight - anticipate. The future foreshadows itself and with anticipation, we can plan accordingly.
 
Reading the Bones is about an ancient way of knowing.  It is about slowing down, looking for signs, trusting in a bigger picture, and seeing what is (not just what we want to see.) It is about getting quiet so we can hear the voice of our spirit.
 
This 1/2 day experiential workshop will cover:  
    • What "is" our current reality?
    • What are "modern-day" bones?
    • What do the bones tell us?
    • The role of fear
    • Deep relaxation and guided imagery practices
