Cedar Circle Sunday Afternoons are reflective experiences with other like-spirited individuals who desire to slow down, and listen to their own soul with the soul of the land at Ignatius Jesuit Centre.
Each ninety-minute gathering is unique, the common denominator being the attentive exploration of connections between nature, individuals and community. Components include contemplative practices, land-basing learning, communal creativity, meaningful conversation and artistic expression. The land is always met as partner and teacher. Discovery is sought.
Every third Sunday of the month between 2:30-4 pm, the gatherings take place both outside and in, depending on the clemency of the weather.
- Rain or shine…(shelter is available)
- Dress for the weather
- Bring a journal and writing implement
- Donations warmly received
No need to register, just come.
February’s Cedar Circle will be facilitated by Sally Ludwig, who is committed to supporting healthy relationships with self, intimates and family, wider human communities, and the natural world. As a facilitator, she relies on the Work that Reconnects to provide a living framework and powerful body of practice for connecting deeply and helping folks to move into empowered action on behalf of life. Trained in multiple Intensives and study with WTR originator Joanna Macy, she has hosted several intensives in Guelph, served on Joanna’s facilitation team, convened book study and expressive arts groups.
Sally’s work as a relational therapist, instructor and clinical supervisor (now retired) has included the introduction of ecotherapy to the family therapist community in Guelph and southern Ontario. Trained in anti-oppression work, Compassionate Communication, Circle Process, the Transition movement, Permaculture and other social technologies, Sally co-founded Transition Guelph and serves as Lead Trainer for Transition in southwestern Ontario. She continues to volunteer time to build resilience in the local community with particular interest in communication, effective collaboration, and the “inner dimensions” of transition.
