Bren\u00e9 Brown, Ph.D., LMSW is a research professor who\u2019s spent the past two decades studying courage, vulnerability, shame, and empathy. She\u2019s the author of five #1\u00a0New York Times\u00a0bestselling books: The Gifts of Imperfection, Daring Greatly, Rising Strong, Braving the Wilderness, and Dare to Lead.\u00a0 <\/span>As a Certified Daring Way Facilitator, Rev. Dr. Mary Laymon leads workshops based on three of these books.<\/p>\nGifts of Imperfection
<\/u><\/strong>\u201cWe are hard-wired for connection.\u201d That\u2019s Bren\u00e9 Brown\u2019s way of saying we are created for relationship. Our life\u2019s work is learning how to love well. This workshop will help you remember who you are and live it fully. Each session will include discussion and resources you can use at work or home, as a colleague, parent, partner, and friend.<\/p>\nSome of our best growth comes in the most vulnerable places of our heart. No one is perfect and our imperfections can empower our growth. It is a daily practice to courageously embrace \u201cWhole-Hearted\u201d living. We welcome you to explore your potential.<\/p>\n
Daring Greatly
<\/strong>In\u00a0Daring Greatly,\u00a0Bren\u00e9 Brown explores at a deeper level the strategies we employ to protect ourselves from criticism and judgment and how they get in the way of our desire for connection, belonging, creativity and attempting new projects.<\/p>\nIn this series, you will learn your particular self-protection strategy. You will then develop a plan for setting aside the strategies that hinder you, so that you can practice the vulnerability necessary to pursue a project you\u2019ve been wanting to implement.<\/p>\n

Rising Strong
<\/strong>Living Brave in the world takes courage. If we\u2019re brave enough, often enough, we will fall. How do we\u00a0Rise Strong\u00a0and grow through a divorce, job loss, failing a test, getting turned down, losing a client, a fight with our partner, or a misunderstanding at work?<\/p>\nThis workshop introduces a three-step process \u2013 Reckoning, Rumble and Revolution \u2013 to help us learn from these life experiences that don\u2019t turn out the way we planned, so we can rise strong and continue on our path.\u00a0You will receive practical tools to engage those moments in your life when living brave provides the opportunity for personal growth, strengthened relationships, improved productivity, and spiritual transformation.<\/p>\n

Incorporating the rhythm of Action\/Reflection, retreats offer an opportunity to reflect on experiences that have already happened or to engage in an experience during the retreat, and then reflect on it. This model recognizes that experiences plant the seeds for new growth and begin to shift our perception, but maturation and transformation emerge from reflecting on these experiences.<\/p>\n
Offered throughout the year, these retreats focus on those moments of changes and transition.<\/p>\n

Spring ~ Water<\/strong>
What wisdom stirs in the dark Waters, what emotions invite your attention?
Summer ~ Fire
<\/strong>Where does the energy of Fire need to burn away impurities, and energize you?
Autumn ~ Wind
<\/strong>How does the Breath of life activate your voice, sharpen your perception?
Winter ~ Earth
<\/strong>What grounds you? What lies beneath the Earth, waiting to be born?<\/p>\nThis retreat series invites us to learn lessons about living from what the Celtic peoples called The Big Book of Creation. Each season we will focus on one of the elements of creation (water, fire, air, and earth) and consider what this element has to teach us, using four different spiritual practices: cooking, gardening, creating, and reflecting. You will stimulate your taste buds, get your hands dirty, express your hearts longing, and rest in a community of connection. Each retreat will engage your senses and give you a sampling of the other programs Tikkun Farm offers.<\/p>\n

Retreats coincide with one of the Equinoxes or Solstices, aligning with natural rhythms. We will close our time together with a shared meal and a community drum circle. Join us through this year long inner and outer journey. You can choose to come to just one, or all four.<\/p>\n

Reflecting on the Burdens and the Blessings ~ Looking Ahead to What Comes Next<\/p>\n
As we stand on the threshold of a new year take some time to reflect on the burdens and the blessings of the past year and consider what\u2019s next on your journey.<\/p>\n
We will consider the power of liminal space. This sacred “in-between” time, when one season ends and the next one has not yet begun, is a thin place in time, when our potential for growth and healing increases, if we can tolerate the uncertainty.<\/p>\n
There will be time to review your year. Using a directed process, we will notice the people, places, events, and ideas that have shaped our year. From these we will cull the gifts to be taken into the new year.<\/p>\n
To begin looking ahead to the coming year, each participant receives a “word” to guide them, as we consider the people, places, ideas, and events that will shape the next season.<\/p>\n
