Join Rev. Eileen Mahoney, expressive arts therapist, writer, and Buddhist practitioner in the Plum Village tradition, for a writing workshop blending the wisdom of nature with the power of words. This half-day program explores what it means to be rooted, especially in these chaotic times. As we move more deeply into autumn and are cradled in the sanctuary of The Mount’s trees, we will enjoy guided meditation, poetry, writing, and sharing our work. Come prepared to relax, enjoy, and reflect on what the trees have to teach us with their solid roots and glorious, colored leaves.
Rev. Eileen Mahoney is an Interfaith Interspiritual minister who offers workshops and counseling regionally and internationally. She is ordained in Thich Nhat Hanh’s Order of Engaged Buddhism and an initiate of the Sufi Order Inayatiaya. She is also a Certified Trauma Informed Expressive Arts Therapist and Mindfulness Teacher. Eileen’s forthcoming book, Viriditas, the Greening of the Soul, outlines a process combining meditation and the arts with spiritual exploration to refresh and enliven our souls in the face of today’s challenges. She believes that we are meant to live from this “Green” dimension of our being, living fully in our True Selves.
