SUMMARY:Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction
DESCRIPTION:Mindfulness can be a powerful tool to identify your physical\, mental and emotional habits and needs. Becoming more familiar with your own mind and its patterns can help you relate more directly to whatever is happening in your life – including difficulty and pain – and discover greater balance and ease. Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) was created in 1979 and has been widely taught and scientifically studied around the world; research has shown positive improvements in physical and psychological symptoms. \nGood news: you don’t need to “clear your mind.” You don’t need special equipment. This class will focus on practice; there will be time for instruction\, reflection\, and dialogue – but at its heart mindfulness is experiential. A variety of practices will be introduced\, including sitting\, walking\, and gently moving\, and participants will be invited to practice at home between classes (with guided instructions included.) Some of the themes include patience\, trust\, letting-be\, and stress reactivity and response. \nNo experience is necessary\, this class welcomes beginners (and skeptics)\, as well as anyone with experience with mindfulness or contemplative practice. Come as you are – even thoughts\, emotions and problems can be avenues for discovering more wisdom and compassion. \nIf you are unsure\, you are welcome to attend the free virtual info and orientation session via Zoom Tues.\, Sep. 29\, 6:00-7:30 pm\, to learn more about the program and decide if you would like to register. Make sure you register for the info session so you receive the Zoom link. \nSchedule – All times 6:00-8:30 pm\, all locations RGH 113 unless otherwise noted\nThe orientation session will be online\, and all other sessions and Day of Mindfulness take place in-person at Holy Wisdom Monastery. \n\nTuesday\, Sep. 29th – Virtual Info & Orientation Session (over Zoom) – 6:00-7:30 pm\nTuesday\, Oct. 6th – Session 1\nTuesday\, Oct. 13th – Session 2\nTuesday\, Oct. 20th – Session 3\nTuesday\, Oct. 27th – Session 4\nTuesday\, Nov. 3rd – Session 5\nTuesday\, Nov. 10th – Session 6\nSaturday\, Nov. 14th – Day of Mindfulness – 9:00 am-3:00 pm (lunch included)\nTuesday\, Nov. 17th – Session 7\nTuesday\, Nov. 24th – Session 8\n\nOptional meals: Dinner at the monastery is available at 5:15 pm each Tuesday for an additional $23. We offer buffet-style meals prepared by our chef from fresh\, healthy\, locally grown ingredients.

Who doesn’t deal with stress on a daily basis and who wouldn’t benefit from learning strategies to help make life more peaceful. Each person has a personal story and life experiences that are challenging to deal with throughout their life. Knowing and practicing the strategies associated with mindfulness training can help manage everything from the smallest stressors to the great ones that shake one’s foundation.”

DESCRIPTION:Join us for the opening reception of the new art exhibit\, Of Quiet Awe\, on November 20\, 2026. The exhibit features the work of photographer Jennifer Peters and painter Karen Fitzsimmons as they explore both the fragility and strength of nature through their respective mediums. Their collaboration explores the delicate balance between reality and imagination as each artist interprets the light\, shadow and motion found in everyday moments in nature. The intricate textures and expressions that define woodlands and water are captured with sensitivity and invite the viewer to accompany them on a visual journey toward tranquility and introspective calm. \nSchedule\n\n6:00 pm – Reception begins. Light refreshments will be available and the artists are available to chat with attendees\n6:30 pm – The artists\, Karen Fitzsimmons and Jennifer Peters will talk about their work and collaboration in this exhibit and welcome questions\n8:00 pm – Reception ends\n\nThe exhibit will be installed on November 18\, 2026.

Her formal painting lessons began in third grade\, and mentors encouraged her throughout school. Karen earned a degree in Art Education from the University of Wisconsin – Platteville. She has worked as an art teacher\, done production work for potters\, worked within the craft industry and owned an art supply store. Throughout the years\, Karen has remained a dedicated painter and has exhibited in galleries and outdoor art shows. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n \nJennifer Peters is an international award- winning artist who has exhibited throughout Wisconsin\, Minnesota and in Europe. Jennifer is an impressionist photographer who strives to engage the viewer by depicting her deep love of nature in an expressive manner.

SUMMARY:Sacred Thresholds
DESCRIPTION:Sacred Thresholds is a contemplative prayer gathering. \nWe are living through a unique chapter in American history when our most cherished values seem threatened\, indeed\, our whole way of life. Each of us\, in our own way\, is asking\, What can I do?\, and the answers\, so far\, seem woefully inadequate to the challenge. It is in that same spirit of humility that we are offering Sacred Thresholds as our answer to that question. Woefully inadequate\, yes\, small\, but genuine\, offered in a communal spirit\, coming together to make a circle\, to pray\, in old ways and in new ways\, to hold each other’s hearts and help one another to stay open. That is what Sacred Thresholds is all about. It’s a work in progress. Like all of us. \nPlease join us at 1:00 pm on the first Monday of the month in the Retreat and Guest House room 222. \nUpcoming dates\n\nOct. 5\, 2026\nNov. 2\, 2026\nDec. 7\, 2026\nJan. 4\, 2027\nFeb. 1\, 2027\nMar. 1\, 2027\nApr. 5\, 2027\nMay 3\, 2027\nJun. 7\, 2027
