Mappa Divina

With Heather Berndt

August 18 - 20, 2023

Are you facing the uncertainties of midlife, questioning where you are and what lies ahead? Do you long for a renewed sense of purpose and a deeper, more authentic spirituality as you step into this transformative season of life?
Mappa Divina© offers a creative and contemplative process to help you reconnect with your soul’s path as you navigate the threshold of life’s second half. Drawing from the art of cartography, mythology, and archetypal psychology, Mappa Divina© invites you to engage with imagery, words, and prayer to create a personalized map of your evolving Self.
Unlike a traditional vision board, Mappa Divina© speaks the symbolic language of your inner landscape, focusing on being rather than having. This unique process is grounded in the mythopoetic wisdom of the Judeo-Christian mystical tradition and the depth psychology of Carl Jung, guiding you toward greater clarity, meaning, and wholeness.
