need a miracle?
“
The original idea behind that year of miracles was processing the loss of my dad. But as I was writing it, and in the months since its publication— I realized it’s really a book about transitions and dealing with almost any kind of foundational change. If you’re going through a significant period of adjustment or loss, and are looking for new insights, that is— the miraculous in the every day— do consider enrolling in our course taking on this topic.” (excerpted from book summary.)
Who/what:
GROWING THROUGH A DIFFICULT SEASON: that year of miracles– the class uses the lens of our book, that year of miracles . . . (2024) to examine how change is challenging but formative.
Why this will help you:
- Whatever your “change” is (it could be a personal loss, or some other disruption) this class will help you see miracles and gain an appreciation of how . . . you will not only get through this challenge— but how you are a better person than you were before.
- A mindful class experience tailored around the needs and goals of each student.
