Healing Wounds Through Shared Stories

You are viewing a previous festival year: 2024
Style: Workshop
Description: Our world is full of hurt people. Each of us has mental, emotional, and spiritual wounds that have not yet been healed. Those wounds affect how we see the world and shape the stories we believe about ourselves and others. We often keep our woundedness packed away, locked up deep in the basement of our souls. We keep the hurts hidden, embarrassed and afraid to appear weak or vulnerable. But wounds fester in the darkness. They need to be brought into the light and air, opened and revealed so that they can be dealt with and healed. During this workshop, we’ll provide a safe space to open your locked up wounds through the power sharing stories and being heard. We’ll share stories from our own woundedness, and hopefully experience the healing that can emerge from being listened to with compassion and intention. Workshop participants will gather in small circles to each share a story of a wound or hurt that needs to be healed. After sharing stories, we’ll reflect together on what we’ve learned both from sharing our own story and listening to the stories of others. Come prepared for an interactive time together where you can get to know other Wild Goose participants in a safe, welcoming space.
