A Note from Wendy Herschman, executive director

 

 

The Red Shoes was born of a dream, an improbable, impractical vision to create a space where women could gather to share their hopes, spiritual journeys and personal challenges. Today, that dream nourishes women and helps sustain our community. While presenting  programs that celebrate spiritual diversity and encourage the creative path of the individual,  perhaps The Red Shoes’ most important mission is promoting the recognition of “oneness,” the sacred unity of life.

 

Looking through our brochure, you will notice many doorways into The Red Shoes. You may find the path to your true self through yoga, creative writing or collage.  We have a fantastic retreat weekend planned to study The Southern Belle, an archetype who shows up in life when we least expect her. We are offering an outstanding Spirituality Series and a unique Spiritual Spa for new and expectant mothers. Choose a  program Celebrating Women that taps into your current stage of life and inquiry.

 

Our Summer Film Series boasts three amazing features: we are bringing back One,The Movie and showing a brand new documentary, Forgiveness. With our exceptional facilitators, these evenings will stimulate profound discussion. We hope you will put all three dates on your calendar.

 

As the days become hotter, remember to plan the time you need to refresh your spirit. Take advantage of our Summer Fun activities, chosen to help you mix recreation, personal enrichment, community service and family time in whatever ways you choose.  We’ll be  putting on a Luau at the Sweet Dreams Shelter, learning to decorate cupcakes at Whole Foods Market and we can hardly wait for our community sing-along.  As Pete Seeger says, “...people singing together gives people some kind of holy feeling, you feel like, Gee, we’re all together.” 

 

We all have lists of things that we should be doing, but remember to put YOU on the list and take time to tend your spirit.  Be part of the dream. Join our community: from book studies to blueberry picking, it will be a great summer
