Leadership and Mentoring Training

A powerful way to enhance your own spiritual practice is to share it with others.

Authority to teach is not easy to come by for some very good reasons. In any spiritual teaching it is important to have peer support and a structured system to assure professional ethics. What is most important is one's own practice, commitment to a continual learning process, and peer involvement.

We offer training to teach specific courses - in community and sometimes professional settings.
Ways of working vary depending on experience.

Participants may host peer-led groups in pairs and, with many years of practice, ongoing work with a teacher, and considerable retreat experience, lead groups on their own. Some offering trainings in their professional work.

Ways to Begin - one or more of the following:
