Rediscovering the Lost Body Connection within Christian Spirituality – An Experiential Book Study (Debbie Sheehan, Rev. Sally Carlson)


BioSpiritual Focusing enables us to find doorways into transformation in our relationship with God, self, and others – a growing sense of connectedness within the Whole Christ where we know ourselves gifted by the Holy. While the practice begins simply with developing the gentle habit of noticing and nurturing important feelings, this experiential book study will offer an ever-deepening engagement and bring new understanding.

There will be 8 Zoom sessions on Sunday afternoons:

Aug 11, Aug 25, Sep 8, Sep 22, Oct 6, Oct 20, Nov 3, Nov 17 - 2:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m. Central Time

This is a Level II Program best suited for those with a basic familiarity with BioSpiritual Focusing who seek to deepen their understanding and practice – and to share the journey with others who are similarly interested.

Participants are responsible for buying their own copy of Rediscovering the Lost Body Connection Within Christian Spirituality by Edwin M. McMahon, Ph.D. and Peter A. Campbell. Ph.D.
