Belonging to Our Longings in Troubled Times: A Seeker’s Writing Retreat at Prairiewoods
<p>What transformative power might we discover if we followed our heart’s longings while opening our life to the needs crying out in the world today? Perhaps you already have and wish to be encouraged. Perhaps you have just recently heard your heart speak and are wondering how to begin. Perhaps, in the noise of the times and the busyness of life, you find it difficult to hear your heart’s soft voice at all. In this weekend retreat at Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha), facilitator Karen Hering will help us use guided writing, conversation, gentle movement, and activities both playful and contemplative to listen for the wisdom rising from our own lives and bodies. We will consider how the world’s needs today can help us understand our own longings more deeply and clearly. And we’ll join in community, encouraging one another and discovering the transformative power of belonging to our longings in troubled times. This retreat is for writers and non-writers alike. The cost of this weekend retreat is $230 and includes sessions, lodging and all meals. The commuter fee is $180 and includes sessions, Saturday lunch and dinner, and Sunday lunch. For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700.</p>

Labyrinth Meditation at Prairiewoods
<p>A labyrinth is a powerful ancient symbol of our journey through life. It has been a part of almost every culture and religious tradition in history. The labyrinth is not a maze; it has a single path that leads to the center of the circle and then back out. This winding path takes us on an inward pilgrimage to our own center and leads us toward the Divine. Walking the labyrinth is a spiritual, prayerful practice. Join facilitator Angie Pierce Jennings at Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) for a guided labyrinth meditation on the outdoor labyrinth. (In case of inclement weather, we will walk the indoor labyrinth.) The cost is $5, and registration is required by Sept. 13. For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700.</p> 2019-06-30 15:15:00 -0500

Silent Mindfulness Meditation Retreat at Prairiewoods
<p>“Life unfolds in moments. The healing power of mindfulness lies in living each one as fully as we can.” —Jon Kabat-Zinn, <em>Full Catastrophe Living. </em>Mindfulness is an open, kind, non-judging attention to what is happening in the present moment as it is happening. It shapes a wise and compassionate relationship with and response to experience as it unfolds moment by moment. As Joseph Goldstein writes in <em>A Heart Full of Peace,</em> “Mindfulness is the quality and power of mind that is deeply aware of what’s happening—without commentary and without interference … keeping us connected to brushing our teeth or having a cup of tea … connected to the people around us.” Scientific research shows that mindfulness can positively affect stress resilience, physical and mental health, the ability to sustain attention, self-regulation of emotions, interpersonal skills, and general well-being and happiness. Come to Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) for a weekend retreat with facilitator Chris Klug to cultivate mindfulness in silence amid instruction, questioning, sitting meditation, walking meditation, mindful movement and mindful eating. All are welcome to participate, whether we are interested in beginning a formal mindfulness meditation practice or have been practicing for some time. Facilitator Chris Klug has practiced mindfulness meditation for more than 30 years, including seven silent extended mindfulness meditation retreats. He is an instructor in the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program at Prairiewoods and at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics (UIHC), where he began teaching in 2001 following participation in training by Jon Kabat-Zinn. He is a grief counselor, educator and consultant in private practice in Iowa City, and a consultant to the palliative care staff at UIHC. Chris has more than 30 years of experience facilitating retreats and workshops on mindfulness, nonviolence, creative conflict resolution, and grief and loss. The cost of this weekend retreat is $230 and includes sessions, lodging and all meals. The commuter fee is $180 and includes sessions, Saturday lunch and dinner, and Sunday lunch. A non-refundable deposit of $25 is required at registration. (Full payment is required to register online. If you prefer to pay the $25 registration fee now and the balance when you arrive, please call 319-395-6700.) If you want to stay in a Hermitage, you also will need to register by phone. If you have dietary restrictions that affect your health, please list them.</p>

Cornell College Theatre Production: The Wolves
<p dir="ltr">By Sarah DeLappe, directed by Katy Hahn. Left quad. Right quad. Lunge. A girls indoor soccer team warms up. From the safety of their suburban stretch circle, the team navigates big questions and wages tiny battles with all the vim and vigor of a pack of adolescent warriors.
