the 5 stages of transformation
FOR YOUR SOUL
Sedona Creative Life Center, AZ, US
EARLY BIRDS ENDS IN:
March 15-17, 2024 - Friday to Sunday 9:00am-7:00pm
Join us for a weekend of community
and spiritual transformation.
This three-day experience will immerse you in the spiritual experiences and insights that the Swedish mystic Emanuel Swedenborg (1688-1772) catalogued over his twenty-five plus years of continuous perception of realms beyond the material world. Swedenborg describes a process of five stages we undergo at the time of our transition from this earth to the spiritual world; you’ll discover how those stages can apply to your own growth, here and now. In six sessions, we’ll take you from death, through transformation, to finding your spiritual home. Presentations by your guides for the weekend, meditation, journaling, movement, Q&A sessions, and small groups will create a myriad of spaces in which to take a deeper dive into your own spirituality and to connect with others on this sacred journey.
Awaken to the expansiveness of your true self and step into the power of your purpose to serve our collective community both here and beyond.
