Spiritual Direction…

What is it?
Spiritual direction is a process that helps you to deepen your relationship with the divine or your understanding of the sacred. It is a conversation that takes place between you and a trained spiritual guide or director. The goal of spiritual direction is to help you become more aware of God’s presence in your life and to explore how to respond to that presence.
Spiritual direction is a collaborative process between the spiritual director and the individual seeking direction. The director provides a safe and non-judgmental space where you can explore your relationship with the divine, share your struggles and joys, and receive guidance and support.

Who is it for?
Spiritual direction is open to everyone, regardless of religious background or belief. It is especially helpful for those who are seeking a deeper connection with the divine, looking for guidance during a time of transition, or seeking to discern their life’s purpose.
Those who are experiencing a crisis of faith, struggling with doubt, or seeking a greater understanding of their religious tradition can also benefit from spiritual direction. The process is flexible and adaptable to your individual needs and concerns.

What should I expect?
During a spiritual direction session, you can expect to engage in a conversation with your spiritual director. You will be encouraged to share your experiences, thoughts, and feelings about your relationship with the divine. Your spiritual director will listen attentively and ask questions to help you explore your spiritual journey.
Spiritual direction is a confidential process, and everything discussed during a session is held in strict confidence. You are free to share as much or as little as you feel comfortable with.
The world is full of magic things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper.
W.B. Yeats
