Kirsten Rudestam - Fall Equinox: Refuge in the Turning
We are approaching the fall equinox, a threshold when day and night are held in balance before the days begin to turn toward darkness. The equinox reminds us that balance is not a fixed state, but a moment within an ongoing process of change. This talk will be inspired by the seasonal turning of seasons, exploring how we may practice balance without expecting things to remain balanced, find refuge when so much around us is uncertain, and how turning towards darkness might invite us into a different way of being intimate with ourselves and with life.
