| Pathways Rhythms October 2023 Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower. ― Albert Camus Thanks for a great Silent Auction! Pathways Retreat’s fourth annual silent auction fundraiser was a success thanks to our generous supporters. A big thank you to all who participated by donating items, bidding, and telling others about this event. We’re already looking forward to next year’s auction and we hope you all will join us again in supporting Pathways’ mission of providing a place for Rest, Reflection, and Renewal. Upcoming Events: Breathing in Harmony with Sacred Time: A Yoga Practice for Every Body Series 2 registration is open As we enter the depths of Autumn, each class in series 2 will begin with inspiration from a Christian saint and a time of "harvesting," which will help us gather the meaningful things that are fueling our practice as we step onto our mats. Appropriate for all levels of participants, this hatha-style yoga class is designed to help us live in harmony with what Christine Valters Paintner calls sacred time, that is, “time spent being present to the moments of eternity available to us whenever we choose to pause and breathe.” Mondays 4:30-5:30pm Cost: $15/session Facilitator: Malinda Elizabeth Berry Space is limited to 9 participants each week View Schedule & Register Meditative Zentangle-inspired Art November 11, January 20, February 17; 10-11:30 Zentangle-inspired Art is the practice of mindfully drawing images from repetitive and structured patterns.
