“I went to Kim Rosen’s ‘Death’s Door’ last year, and it was undoubtedly the most powerful and profound retreat I’ve ever experienced. Invaluable for anyone dedicated to spiritual development.”
All the wisdom teachings of the world tell us, through one story or another, that the key to life lies in the manner in which we meet death within and around us. This six part online series is an opportunity to welcome all that emerges as we turn towards our own death, the deaths of our loved ones, and the losses, changes and “everyday dying” that abound in a life fully lived.
Poetry, ritual, movement, writing and guided inner inquiry will hold, heal, challenge, and reveal us. Within an exquisitely supportive sacred space, we will welcome the fears, losses, blessings and awakenings that come from opening to death and loss as a portal to fullest aliveness.
Kim has innovated unique techniques of working with the Zoom video platform that allows for deep intimacy, authenticity and a lush immersion in music, poetry, movement and connection. Optional homework explorations, readings and videos, small group sharing circles and partner work continue the conversation between gatherings, and the “Temple Wall”, a private social media site, provides a place to share and connect.
A note about what this is not: This is not 2.5 hours entrained to your device. It is an inner journey that will intentionally disrupt your ‘screen time’, because the primary focus is deep listening within.
