Dr. Jose Parappully, Director of Sumedha Centre was invited
to facilitate a three day workshop on “Midlife Dynamics and the Spiritual
Journey” at the Sainte Andre Study Home, Sakalavara, on the outskirts of
Bangalore.
The workshop was organizes by the National Secretariat of
the Conference of Religious of India (CRI). It was held from January 6 to 9, 2020.
There were 46 participants – five religious men and priests
and 41 religious women.
The content of the workshop included: Awakening to Midlife,
Midlife Dynamics, Midlife Transformational Processes, and A Spirituality for
the Post-Midlife Years.
The participants were highly appreciative of the workshop.
All of them found the workshop content and process very useful. It provided
them much understanding of what they were experiencing at midlife and to make
sense of them. They felt they were now much better prepared to go through the
post-midlife years.
One aspect of the workshop that was particularly appreciated
was the integration of psychology and spirituality into the content and process
of the workshop right through, something that is quite rare in similar
workshops.
