TRUSTING
OURSELVES
Life brings change. How we respond to change depends on our inner resources. This retreat will focus on increasing our ability to trust ourselves; thoughts, feelings, intuitions and decisions, providing a chance to rest, reflect, re-energize, and center. Facilitated by Jean Ann Powers. Registration deadline is August 25.
