Old Bones
A six-part series on finding meaning through myth in modern life
While we’re more connected than ever in digital ways, loneliness and isolation are at an all-time high.
Many of us are waking up to the need for more meaning and connection in our communities and lives, but where and how do we find it?
“Without the dimensions of myth, the world can seem depleted and arbitrary. With it there is perspective, tools and the sense of an adventure to be lived.”
Our present-day world is becoming more complex and chaotic all the time.
Old myths are portals that allow us to step behind the veil of the everyday to see our lives and circumstances with fresh eyes.
These stories help us remember where we come from and provide guidance on how to resource ourselves from a deeper well.
They illuminate the invitation in our challenges and offer us a renewed sense of both agency and surrender.
Through myth, shared in heartfelt community, we return to our modern lives with greater clarity, maturity, and vitality.
what to expect:
GATHER AROUND THE FIRE
When the weather allows, we’ll gather around an actual fire, sharing stories as our ancestors have done for millenia. If not a literal fire, we’ll circle around a metaphorical flame to listen and learn, and speak what’s alive and true.
You’ll come away from each session with:
A sense of having reconnected to an older, wiser self
A readiness to meet the circumstances of your life with fresh perspective
Greater connection to your own history, to our shared history, and what it means for how you live today
Renewed clarity around the course of your life
The reassurance of having been seen and held in community
Each two-hour session includes:
Short grounding meditation
Brief personal check-in
A communal reading of the selected myth
Brief summary with prompts for discussion
Sharing and reflection in dyads and in the larger group around what’s being evoked through the story

“Mythic imagination is necessary for re-imagining, re-storying, and thus re-storing the world as a place of wonder, beauty, and truth.”
