Half-Day Forgiveness Workshop with Eileen Barker
Forgiveness is a powerful tool for creating inner and outer peace. It is especially useful for anyone up against difficult, and seemingly insurmountable, conflict. Even in the hardest of cases, it can create a pathway from conflict to a deeper place of understanding and compassion. Because forgiveness integrates all levels of conflict — physical, emotional, mental and spiritual–it uniquely enables people to experience the opportunity for transformative healing that is present in every conflict.
This program will include an overview of forgiveness from Eileen Barker, experiential exercises and discussion.
“Many people want to forgive but don’t know “how.” This is the purpose of The Path of Forgiveness – to teach people how to forgive – and the process starts wherever you are.
