Talking the Walk Retreat for Educators - Sevenhill May 22-24 2024
How do we learn to discern along our winding journey? What dispositions help us notice the Spirit’s movements in everyday life and work? How can we embody the truths we discern? This all concerns the craft of reflective practice—how we connect faith and experience, and live the implications. This is an essential capacity for flourishing living, and especially for leaders and formators in faith-based education today.
Talking the Walk is a contemplative, holistic, individual and communal approach that deepens Christian reflective practice. Drawn from the Emmaus Road story (Lk 24) and the labyrinth, it offers three movements for meaning-making: contemplative listening, imaginative discernment, and courageous embodiment.
Set in Sevenhill’s beautiful surrounds, this soulful, robust and practical retreat offers the chance to learn and use Talking the Walk to reflect on a chosen experience by yourself and with another in a safe and structured way. Come and be personally renewed and professionally equipped through an immersive experience to better walk and along talk the wisdom way for the flourishing of self, others and the world.
