As we collectively face this unprecedented moment of destabilization and volatility, the Wisdom question of the moment seems to be: What is ours to hold — and how do we do it consciously? We are resolved, we do not want to hide, but nor do we want to fritter away energy in ungrounded reactivity.
In early May 2025, Cynthia Bourgeault met with an intimate group of students, gathered in Georgia, to offer a teaching on meeting this moment with hope, resilience, spiritual readiness, and assistance from the imaginal realms. Wisdom Waypoints is thrilled to be able to share select excerpts from this rich, accessible teaching with the entire network.
Our deep gratitude to Rebecca Parker with Integral Arising in Atlanta, Georgia and Rev. Stuart Higginbotham with the Grace Episcopal Church in Gainesville, Georgia for creating this powerful and needed event and generously sharing it on behalf of the whole. Please read more about these seasoned Wisdom teachers and their offerings at the bottom of the page.
