About the Listening to Your Life Retreat course
This retreat offers an opportunity to reflect on your life direction or spiritual path, perhaps at a time of discernment or wondering.
The retreat includes addresses and prayer together around the theme of listening to your life, drawing on reflections from the 2016 book by the retreat leader, Julia Mourant.
There will be time and space to use in your own way, with suggested resources and opportunity to get out and about. There also will be time for a conversation with the retreat leader for those who wish.
Julia Mourant’s most recent book is Listening to Your Soul (2022). In November 2022, Julia wrote an article about discernment in the Church Times.
‘This book is perfect for spiritual directors to recommend to directees who are new to the process. It is an excellent resource for a person who is searching for connection with her soul. It is also a great resource for pastors to pass on to congregants they deem ready for spiritual direction. Spiritual directors themselves may find the articles, questions, and prayers helpful as they work with directees. This book is also a good resource for an institutional or professional library. It is even appropriate for someone who is seeking a spiritual life but does not believe in God. I highly recommend it.’
