An opportunity to indulge in some soul care as we listen deeply between the lines. For listeners and writers alike.
Caring for our souls:
‘The soul is like a wild animal- tough, resilient and shy…’
Parker Palmer
You are invited to spend a few days caring for your soul by contemplating poetry and scripture. There will be space for reading poetry and for writing your own in the peace and tranquility of the Bield grounds and facilities.
