Eros in Our Lives
March 15, 2014 @ 10:00 am - 3:00 pm PDT
We will learn about how Eros shows up in our lives and something about the brain and Eros. We will be encouraged to explore how Eros has driven, burdened, frightened, controlled, enlivened, and humbled us. We will reflect on dreams and experiences of Eros, plus previous or present attractions/crushes, and will learn what Eros has to teach us as we fall into its grip. How do we move through this energy and glean its gifts that set our souls on fire, yet not let it destroy us?
