Stress is a stranger to no one. Once described merely as wear and tear
on the body, stress is now best defined as "a disconnection from our
divine source." Times of stress may bring feelings of panic and
mayhem, but stress also provides the opportunity for spiritual
growth—when we call upon our inner resources (faith, patience,
humbleness, intuition, courage, humor and compassion) to dismantle
life's major roadblocks so that we may walk in balance on the human
path.
There is an ancient Chinese proverb that speaks to the nature of human
existence, and underscores the importance of finding balance in our
lives. It reads, "Stand like mountain, move like water." To
stand like a mountain means to feel strong and secure in the midst of
change. To move like water means to go with the flow. This workshop
explores these topics: the relationship between stress and human
spirituality, the seasons of the soul, spiritual potential and spiritual
health, the use of "muscles of the soul" to dismantle roadblocks
and distractions on the spiritual path and several effective life
enhancing skills to navigate the shoals on one's life path, or what
Joseph Campbell called "the Hero's Journey."
Are the winds of change and the winds of grace one in the same? Perhaps!
Based on Seaward's popular best seller, Stand Like Mountain, Flow Like
Water, this presentation weaves theory and story, personal experience,
coping and relaxation skills, humor, wit and love in a poetic synthesis
that both educates and inspires audiences of all ages. Television host,
Joan Lunden (formerly of Good Morning America), credits the book, Stand
Like Mountain, with helping her get through her life's most difficult
passages. This workshop includes a copy of the 10th anniversary issue of
Stand Like Mountain, Flow Like Water. This workshop is 40% lecture and
60% experiential. Please join us for an inspiring day.
