Symbols: The Language of Spirit

Students in the winter class series at River Montessori have been exploring in a deeper way how to be present.  We have been looking at all the things that create barriers to being in the moment and ways to reconnect back to the present.  In one class we talked about how to hear and listen to spirit inside - this led to an exploration of how spirit speaks to us and how we listen.  Each student explored the symbols that appear in their dreams and in their meditations that are personal for them and how they help them reconnect.  They painted and colored some symbols that are meaningful to them

 

Delightful spot for classes

Here are some photos of the lovely space at the Dhyana Center where I am holding my classes and workshops this summer.  Reminds me of a magical playhouse with lots of room for the big imaginations of small people.  The place is set back from the main house of the center and surrounded by gardens in bloom.  Parents are welcome to stay and enjoy the serenity....sit on the lawn or garden chairs while the children explore within.....
