From Call to Return: Charting Your Hero's Journey (in-person)

Meets Friday, 6:30-9 p.m. and Saturday, 9 a.m.-4 p.m.
It has been 75 years since Joseph Campbell published “The Hero With a Thousand Faces.” In his seminal book, Campbell outlined the “monomyth,” a pattern of storytelling he believed represented the universal human journey of self-discovery. By understanding stories that move us, we can better understand the path of human transformation. During this retreat, you will embark on your own discovery journey. Through lectures, group conversations and personal reflection, we’ll explore the stages of the monomyth, meet the archetypal characters that help or hinder us along the way, and connect the stories that inspire us to move forward. You’ll be invited to chart two important journeys: one you have taken and one you are called to begin.
Presenter: Isaac Mezera

OVERNIGHT: $190, includes private bedroom, breakfast and lunch on Saturday
