Stress to Strength

Stress to Strength ~ An Emissary workshop

We live in dramatically changing times. 

Here at Riverdell we’ve been working on strategies to navigate some of the immense paradoxes, pressures and challenges of our times. We’ve come up with a few ideas that work for us, and we’d like to share them with you.

Join us for one evening and two days to share the blessing of community, the comfort of understanding and a real reconnection with personal mission, as well as your own clear, unique set of possibilities to enhance your life experience.

Aims of the workshop:

• Building a community of practice to turn stress into strength
• Cultivating resilience and self trust
• Practical tools for ongoing stress management
  

Our training draws on indigenous wisdoms and ancient spiritual teachings as well as cutting edge research into social, psychological and community development. It focuses on individual experiential inputs empowering you, the participant, to custom design your own outcomes because each of us is amazing and together, we are awesome!

Your facilitators bring a wealth of experience and diverse perspectives.
