Spirit-led Education for a Spirit-led Life
A module from the course
Wonder, Positive Social Connection and Virtue is Spirit-led Education for a Spirit-led Life. The course has grown out of the combined efforts of educators, school leaders, health practitioners, artists and biodynamic farmers who are in a living relationship to child development through their tasks. They offer modules for supporting educators and parents to consistently renew and imbue the child with life-giving forces.
The course content helps to support and guide children and in doing so the opportunity arises to assess and re-establish one’s own ground from which a spirit-led life grows.
Exercises accompany each lesson that allow the participant to enter more deeply into the content while also engaging with their own questions and life circumstances. The tutors will be able to respond to your individual questions for guiding and supporting the child/children you may focused upon throughout the study.
Study on your own or with others
Work at your own pace so that you can integrate the content. The module has a diary sheet that asks questions.. when you are ready submit the diary sheet and Lisa Romero will respond with individual feedback.
