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

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>

Tallgrass Conversations Book Reading at Prairiewoods: In Search of the Prairie Spirit
<p>Join author Thomas Dean at Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) as he reads and shares photographs from his newly-released <em>Tallgrass Conversations: In Search of the Prairie Spirit. </em>These stories will be a springboard to discussing how conversations can enhance our relationships 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. Let’s engage in conversation with each other and with the prairie! Those of us who want to go even deeper are invited to register for Tom’s 24-hour retreat that begins with this book reading. (Please see the separate registration page.) The cost of the book reading is $10, and the book is available in the Prairiewoods Gift Shop. For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700.</p> 2019-08-19 20:30:00 -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>
