    Elemental Transformation: Changing How We Work with Change

    A hands-on/minds-on workshop with Frank Chester and Seth Miller

    Saturday, March 20th
    9 am – 5 pm
    Live Oak Charter School Petaluma, CA

    Pre-registration is required.
    All workshop materials provided. Cost: $100

    This all-day workshop will combine hands-on geometry with dynamic presentations and experiential exercises designed to help you deepen your relationship with transformation.  You will leave this workshop with a physical form of your own creation and a more subtle and complex understanding of how transformation unfolds according to the archetypal patterning of the four elements: Earth, Water, Air, and Fire. Our goal is to inspire you and enliven your own everyday transformative work.  This workshop is perfect for parents, teachers, therapists, social workers, and anyone interested in transformation. There will be a one hour period for lunch. You can bring your own lunch or drive off-site for lunch.

    Frank Chester is an artist, sculptor, geometrician, and teacher based in San Francisco.  He has been working with the four elements for over 10 years, having used them as an integral part of the research that led him to the discovery of a brand-new seven-sided form that has deep connections to the human heart. Frank travels widely, giving dynamic presentations connecting form, geometry, and spirit.

    Seth Miller has taught physics and many other subjects in Waldorf schools across the West.  With a Master’s degree in consciousness studies, he is passionate about bringing forth tools for transformation; his specialty is the alchemy of the four elements. He is currently developing this work in a PhD dissertation, which weaves together alchemy, cybernetic epistemology, Goethean phenomenology, and anthroposophy.

  • Coros Meditative Retreat: The Teachings of Isis: From Anxiety to Insight

    Dennis Klocek is holding a Coros Institute meditative retreat on April 3rd – 5th (Palm Sunday Weekend) at Walker Creek Ranch in Petaluma, CA.

    Topics will include:

    · Death of the spirit in the material world as a source of unconscious anxiety.
    · Working on the essential steps of separating the soul forces in the process of self-development.
    · Re-uniting effectively the soul forces and forging new insights into dreams, destiny and karma.

    If you have never heard Dennis or worked with him before, you are in for a real treat.  He walks his talk, and offers a very unique approach and vision of personal transformation.  It’s not just theory, but well-honed advice that weaves together decades of personal meditative work, phenomenological study, and repeated application.  You don’t want to miss it!

    Attached is a PDF flier that you can print and mail in to register: do it before you come up with some lame excuse to stay home and keep your life static and unchanging!
