The Shadow Class Challenge
In June 2010, I will again offer my class on shadow work. It has been my experience that this class is best received by those who have had at least six months of shadow work prior to the class. Additionally this year, we are also offering a follow up class, Shadow Work for Leaders, Clergy, Adepts & Mystics in December.
How does one prepare for a class on shadow work?
- You start by first reading Romancing the Shadow by Connie Zweig and Steve Wolf and working through the examples in each chapter.
- And if there is time, you also read Inner Work: Using Dreams and Active Imagination for Personal Growth by Robert A. Johnson and use his techniques to analyze your dreams.
- You keep a journal to track your dreams, daily thoughts and insights, plus your answers to the exercises from steps 1 and 2.
- You bring the journal to class with you.
The shadow work class is scheduled for Sunday, June 6th with the follow up class scheduled for December 5th. In my experience, those that prepare themselves ahead of time have a deeper understanding of the work involved and are able to make use of this understanding in ways they never would have imagined otherwise.
I do not currently have plans to offer this level of shadow work in 2011. Do not miss this opportunity to step up to the Work.

Earth, air, fire, and water - each of us interacts and functions in this world with elemental preferences that goes beyond our astrological sign or our "favorite" element.
In this two-part weekend, learn about the links between the ancient elements and modern psychology, how our personal evolutionary journey is defined by our element type, and how we can use this knowledge and insight to fuel and direct our journey of spiritual development and vocation.
You can register for one or both classes. The introductory class is a prerequisite for Sunday's class.
Course Fee: $130 for both days; $75 for one day
Process Dreaming: Finding Your Allies and Following Your Dreams
With Anne Hill
Sunday, March 28, 2010
From 9:30a.m. to 5:30p.m.
Working with dreams has been likened to a call and response process: we call, and our dreams respond. And often, when our dreams call to us, we are compelled to respond. The more conscious we become of what our dreams are calling us to, the more we can joyfully engage in the process of growth and maturation this involves.
This workshop is designed to support and deepen your relationship with your dreams, by presenting tools for group dreamwork, new methods of personal inquiry, and an opportunity to find a dream ally. All participants should bring a dream to share, whether recent or very old, an object for a dream altar, and a journal. All levels of dream experience welcome.
Course Fee: $75
