Transforming Pain to Gain
a part of Deanery IX's "Wellness and Spirituality" Series
 Saturday, February 18, 2012
Presented by Sheffra Williams
Host: The Rev. Carolyn Estrada Church of the Messiah, 614 North Bush Street Santa Ana, CA 92701 Healthy Snacks: 12:45 Program 1:15-3:45 pm In
this highly interactive workshop, Sheffra uses the power of
storytelling to transform the physical and psychic "pains" in our lives
into advantages. As she says, "when you change your narrative, you
change your life - even though the facts may remain the same."
With a session that is "99 percent audience participation," as Sheffra
works with us to develop our stories, we'll experience the transforming
power of a "told" story. As she explains: "Storytelling is all
about the importance of having someone listen to your truth, then share
the meaning it made for them. What the listeners see in the story
frequently includes strengths about the teller that the teller does not
even see". (The next presenter in this series is our own Dr. Dobies! Click here for a list of the whole series: Wellness and Spirituality) |
