A 4-hour online, interactive, real-time experience of inner healing. Centered on the diamond within, our Imago Dei, we will explore and apply concepts, tools, and processes found to facilitate inner healing and transformation.

This half-day experiential addresses the underlying premises and processes of inner healing. Additionally, participants have the opportunity to identify and heal their shame. The emphasis will be on participation as well as learning tools to apply to real life.

The experiential is open to anyone interested in receiving inner healing and those curious about the Imago Dei approach, along with practitioners interested in continuing their Inner Healing education with the 8-week course and future courses. The half-day experiential workshop can also help a practitioner discern a call to inner healing.
