Life is a continuous cycle of beginnings and endings. Whether it’s the break up of a relationship, the arrival of a child, the loss of a job, the first weeks in a new apartment, or the shift between seasons, the reality is, we experience change every day. One might think we would all be transition experts by now. However, when an unexpected event or situation causes us to go on a different path than the one we thought we were on, we often experience resistance, anxiety or fear.
Why is it so hard for us to let go? Are there techniques and strategies that can help us get over the crest of change faster? Or, better yet, is it possible to cultivate a new orientation or relationship with this experience altogether?
In this public conversation, we will explore the transition process from different perspectives and consider how we can remain agile and empowered as we proceed through this ever-evolving dance.
When: Wednesday, April 10, 2013, from 7 to 9 p.m.
Where: La Ruche D’Art, 4525 St-Jacques St. (corner Lenoir), Place-Saint-Henri metro
Guest: Solomon Krueger
Moderator: Allison Gonsalves
