Soul Care: Creative Arts Grief Support Group at Prairiewoods
<p>Take time to connect with others in grief and engage the creative spark. Jamie Siela, LISW, from UnityPoint Hospice facilitates this monthly grief group open to anyone grieving loss through death. On the third Wednesday of each month, come together online or in person to explore a different creative art medium. On Feb. 15, we will explore sand art, creating optical illusions. In grief, we often experience unexpected emotions; this project is an opportunity to develop unexpected layers of creativity. Registration is required by noon nine days in advance. Group art kits will be mailed to those who will be joining online one week prior to the session. Please note at registration if you plan to attend in person or online. This group is free and includes all art supplies. For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700.</p> 2022-12-10 19:00:00 -0600

Web-Weaving: Pre-Launch Study Series for Spirituality in the 21st Century at Prairiewoods
<p>Together, let's begin tilling the soil and rooting ourselves for <em>Spirituality in the 21<sup>st</sup> Century 2023</em> with Jeremy Lent (coming April 28–29, 2023). We will begin with the six parts of Jeremy's book <em>The Web of Meaning.</em> Six essential questions for the wider “We” include: <em>Who Am I? Where Am I? What Am I? How Should I Live? Why Am I?</em> and <em>Where Are We Going?</em> These are six essential questions for the spiritual sojourner embedded in the great web of life. Jeremy's work in Liology, a world-view for sustainable flourishing, will help us tap into the web of meaning with our full sensorium, with an eye toward integration and wholeness. Living in the midst of post-humanism and the technological mayhem of constant (superficial and mis-) information overload, this series will challenge all of us to delve deeper, opening us to the questions that matter for the "We" we're becoming. We are seeking communal wisdom to help prepare for the<em> Spirituality in the 21<sup>st</sup> Century</em> event in April by hosting these critical conversations. This is a six-part series (<a name="_Hlk120959390">Jan. 10, Jan. 17, Jan. 24, Jan. 31, Feb. 7 and Feb. 21</a>) at Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) with facilitators Ellen Bruckner and Laura A. Weber, Ph.D., cohosts of Prairiewoods’ Go Deeper Thursdays. This is an invitation to come together and explore together the topics that define us. We welcome your participation, either for one or two sessions or for all of them. You may find Jeremy’s book <em>The Web of Meaning</em> helpful in these conversations. (Copies are available at Prairiewoods or online.) You also may want to visit his website (https://www.jeremylent.com/) or watch this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Zjr2hAIYGE&amp;t=326s) for background information. The cost is $10 per session, or $50 for the six-session series. For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700.</p> 2023-01-31 17:00:00 -0600

Rock Mandala Painting for the Whole Family at Prairiewoods
<p>Spend a few hours creating art with your favorite people! Join facilitator Andi Lewis at Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) for a fun time together as we learn the art of rock painting with mandalas, which are sacred works of art in the form of a circle. Using smooth stones, paints and fine dotting tools, we will make beautiful, detailed mandalas. This is a fun, relaxing process that can be done by anyone, regardless of age. We will have time to paint several rocks and will be encouraged to take one rock home and leave one as a secret gift for a stranger to find. No experience or artistic skill is necessary, but kids 12 and under must be accompanied by an adult. (It is ideal for ages 10 and older.) This program usually fills up early, so register today! Everyone attending must register individually. The cost is $13 and includes rocks and all art supplies. For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700</p> 2022-12-10 12:00:00 -0600
