Saturday Soul-Stretch for Lovers of Embodied Spirituality at Prairiewoods
<p>Wake up! Wake up! The weekend is here. Saturday Soul-Stretch will get us out of bed and back into our full-spectrum humanity! Come to Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) once a month to de-stress, reconnect and sink deeply into the present moment. A hot breakfast starts the day, followed by gentle tai chi movement and a sitting meditation to foster deep relaxation. Once we’re relaxed and engaged, we’ll sip aromatic tea and enter into a whole new realm of exploration with a different spiritual modality each month, such as working with dreams, journaling, mandalas, labyrinths, breath-exercise, sounding, centering prayer, poetry for the soul, singing bowl meditation or drumming. To cap off the morning’s spiritual workout, we’ll enjoy a mindfulness walk out in the beauty of Prairiewoods’ 70 acres of prairie grasses, trees, streams and gardens, with only the owls, squirrels, turkeys and deer as our companion-guides. Finally, we’ll return to the Center for a delicious lunch, and leave happy and refreshed! The cost is $50 and includes breakfast and lunch. For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700.</p> 2018-01-09 13:00:00 -0600

Tallgrass Conversations Retreat at Prairiewoods: In Search of the Prairie Spirit
<p>Conversation is perhaps our greatest hope, not only for healing the rifts in human understanding, but also for restoring and reinspiring our relationship with the natural world. If we think of <em>conversation</em> as encounter and interaction that creates something new—understanding, inspiration, care, healing—then conversation with our native landscape can nurture a deeper relationship with and sense of stewardship of the tallgrass prairie, one of the most altered and threatened ecosystems in the world. To be in search of the prairie spirit here in this place on Earth, then, means to engage in tallgrass conversations. Come to Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) for a Friday evening book reading and Saturday retreat with author Thomas Dean. The Friday night event—which is open to the public—will consist of Tom reading and sharing photographs from his recently-released book <em>Tallgrass Conversations: In Search of the Prairie Spirit,</em> as well as discussion about how conversation can enhance our relationships with the natural world. The day-long Saturday workshop will continue the discussion but focus greatly on us encountering the prairie, generating creative expression and sharing that creative expression with one another. The cost for the 24-hour retreat is $195 and includes sessions, Friday night lodging, all Saturday meals and a copy of <em>Tallgrass Conversations. </em>(An optional overnight Saturday, including Sunday breakfast, can be added for $55.) The commuter fee is $165 and includes sessions, Saturday lunch and dinner, and a copy of <em>Tallgrass Conversations.</em> For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700.</p>
