“The key to blessing things is to receive their blessing.” (Barbara Brown Taylor). Blessing is about giving and receiving, humility, mercy and the soul’s capacity for continued growth. Beginning with childhood, explore diverse expression of blessing in presence, word, music, movement and ritual. Presenting a resource base from diverse sources and traditions, this session will explore blessing as a change agent for life, for death and for the face of bereavement.
