Care of Self:
Nurturing Silence and Sabbath
July 13-31, 2008
Facilitators: TBA
12.0 contact hours
In the process of giving
care to others, care givers often overlook their own practice of
self-care. Through peer dialogue around three presentations, this
seminar provides participants an opportunity to reflect on their
own care regarding rest and personal renewal while learning to observe
the sacrament of the present moment and affirm the gift and necessity
of rest.

of the Present Moment"
by E. Glenn Hinson, Ph.D.
