Spiritual Guidance
As a certified Spiritual Guide, I am available by appointment to meet one-on-one with individuals desiring to explore a Spiritual Guidance relationship. Group Spiritual Guidance is also available for those drawn to small group sharing and the richness of learning from others' stories. Check out my Spiritual Guidance page.

Bridges to Contemplative Living
Are you yearning for a contemplative space in the busyness of your daily life? Come; join other seekers in reflective dialogue as a grounding point for living a more meaningful life. Using the Bridges series of short, inter-spiritual writings by Trappist monk Thomas Merton and other spiritual teachers, this small group gathering is a rich process of listening, conversing, and sharing insights with others. No prior reading or experience is needed.

Retreats

Do you have a group of friends or co-workers who are interested in setting up a private retreat? Any of these retreats can be scheduled and/or tailored to meet your group's retreat needs.
With advance notice, I am also available to design a retreat around your group's specific theme or topic of choice. Contact me at (608) 698-3596 or bethobrien@tds.net to further discuss retreat possibilities.
