Spiritual Companioning

Service Description

Spiritual Companioning, like Spiritual Direction, is a process of deepening a person's spirituality. Spirituality is the term used to describe every person's response to and relationship with the Sacred (whether you experience the Sacred as God, The Divine, Reality, Higher Self, Buddha Nature, etc). The focus of companioning sessions can be as intimate as emotions and interpersonal relationships and as wide and diverse as the cosmos. In a typical session, the seeker brings the stories of his or her journey and/or any life experiences to reflect on. The companion does not tell the seeker what to do but rather listens to the seeker’s story and helps him or her to reflect on the more subtle movements of the Spirit in the seeker’s life. Spiritual companioning is not therapy. The goal of this relationship is for the seeker to gain greater consciousness of and participation with the Sacred in the ordinary events of life in order to grow in compassion, freedom, and service. As such, this spiritual companionship relationship is built on trust and is confidential. The focus for spiritual direction arises from the experiences of day to day living. Spiritual companionship assists in: * Growth in self-knowledge * An increasing practice of compassion, mercy and justice * Greater engagement with the inner and outer world * Discernment in decision-making and experiences of call * A deepening experience and awareness of the Sacred * Living and responding in ways that are healing for all creation
