Tickets for the event will be released shortly.

Led by Sufi teacher and Emergence Magazine founder and executive editor Emmanuel Vaughan-Lee, this all-day workshop will explore simple practices and ways of being that connect you with the ongoing unique expressions of the seasons. Emmanuel will offer instruction on embodied acts of slowing down, noticing, opening the senses, and aligning the cycles of your own body with those you experience around you. Drawing upon both his new book Song of the Seasons and Emergence’s latest practice book, Requiem, Invitation, and Celebration, this workshop will reveal opportunities to engage with the seasons that are present every day, in moments striking and subtle, and how to be in a space of constant receptivity to these invitations. The workshop will run from 11am to 5pm in the Reethaus, with weather-permitted time outdoors, and include a talk, nature connection and deep listening exercises, walking meditation, and lunch. 

A related lecture given by Emmanuel Vaughan-Lee will be held ahead of the workshop on Friday, March 27, exploring the themes in his new book, Song of the Seasons
