Naturecentric Spiritual Teachers from various communities across the USA will share Leadership Teachings throughout the weekend. Friday we gather for a meet and greet. Saturday we explore the relationship between the Fool and a Leader's Work. Saturday evening we play together and Sunday we share in a Wisdom Circle with 4 rounds of sharing, followed by a brainstorm session over lunch regarding the future of the TOLIS, gaining input and planning the next year's Council meeting dates.
We invite you to gather with others in your geographic location to form a physical small group (following local social distancing practices as applicable). Even if you are not available to gather with your group physically, we will use ZOOM technology and group your community together in private breakout session(s) for group sharing experiences as desired.
You can also join by yourself from your own space to retreat in connection with others gathering online. We will set up small groups each workshop for reflections and these can be with others you are already working on projects with or with new people you meet through this event.
Saturday evening will feature our Bardic Elder Circle. It will be MC'd by Featured Bardic Elder, Sarah Heartsong (unless otherwise announced) and our tech Teach, Joshua Vanderhof. Bardic Elder line up TBA. Sign ups will be taken prior to the event in the Facebook Event and during the event in the participant chat.
After the Featured Bardic Elders have all shared the event will morph into an Open Mic Bardic Circle. At that same time our break out room will have a couple other options for relaxing and enjoying the evening. (TBA)
Take a retreat with time to reflect and replenish with our association of naturecentric spiritual practitioners and groups. Lean back into Sacred Living and connect with a wider community of Leaders.
Find support and learning about leadership from wherever you are.
PAY WHAT YOU WILL
For this fourth year, a contribution of at least $22 = retreat ($11 minimum) with membership ($11) is the basic requirement to attend. *
*Member Groups of the TOLIS have "blanket membership" for their members and the $11 basic membership fee not required, just the $11 for the event and agreement with our ethics.
We encourage everyone to sincerely consider donating more to help establish and grow our association. We intend to provide our members to access to the recordings of Teachings at some later time, once we have figured that part out. (Estimated value of electronic retreat showcasing 18-20 Elder Leaders / Teachers with over 20 hours of programming = $300 - $500)
