Homecoming: Return to Self
This autumn we gather with the intention of coming home to ourselves. Daily life often encourages or forces perfection, imitation, blending in, and abandoning the self in order to fit a mold someone else has set. Over time, we contort ourselves so convincingly that the self becomes hidden under many layers of pretending. During our weekend together, we will excavate the parts of ourselves that have been lost to conformity and invite our true selves out to play, be nourished, and stay for good.
We will ask:
What social pressures have I been expected to conform to?
What parts of myself do I change in order to be accepted?
What does my inner voice sound like when it speaks unencumbered by expectation and obligation?
How can I advocate for my true self in situations where I have previously been forced to compromise who I am?
