  • Staying present within the paradox of the human experience
  • The sacred landscape of grief, loss, death, and dying
  • Life's unlikely paths to forgiveness
  • The power of inventing our own holy rituals
  • Mirabai's book: Wild Mercy, Living the Fierce and Tender Wisdom of the Women Mystics
  • and more...
