Earth & Soul January News

Dear Friends of Earth & Soul,

New Year’s blessings to each of you as we enter into 2024.

We are delighted to share the Earth & Soul offerings for 2024 with you and invite you to see more details and registration links below. Our online Celtic Wisdom 2 Retreat is January 20-21 and there is still space available. John Philip and I hope to see you this year as we deepen our journey through study, spiritual practice, and listening together in community to how this translates into compassionate action in our lives and world. Our complete list of 2024 retreats, pilgrimages and events are listed on our Events Page.

We invite you as this new year begins to pause for a moment with your hand on your heart as you read the blessing below. Bring your awareness to what stirs inside of you and how you are being invited to look for the light in one another and all things everywhere. Let us pray for peace together in heart, mind, soul and action.

Peace where there is war
healing where there is hurt
memory where we have forgotten the other.
Vision where there is violence
light where there is madness
sight where we have blinded each other.
Comfort where there is sorrow
tears where there is hardness
laughter where we have missed life’s joy
laughter when we remember the joy.

-John Philip Newell

Thank you for being a part of the Earth & Soul community. May we be awake and aware of both the pain and suffering and the laughter and joy.

Peace,

Cami Twilling
