Wholeness and Holiness: How to be Sane, Spiritual, and Saintly

From a psychological perspective sanity, that is, soundness and balance, is what we need to survive and thrive in the world. From a wholeness perspective, we feel ourselves drawn to a spiritual consciousness, something more than individual surviving and thriving. From a faith perspective, we believe that sanctity is our divinely imprinted calling and destiny. Each of the three has a specific set of practices that lead to their fulfillment. The self-help movement sometimes gives the impression that its recommendations are totally separate from spiritual practices. Spiritually-oriented books might propose the reverse. In this workshop, we look for ways to bring the two together. Then we find practices that can escort us to a third splendid objective: becoming a saint. Integrating all three wonderful goals into one person in one lifetime is a grace and joy.
