We are always in some form of transition—and transformation: personal, professional, relational, spiritual, social, political. Knowing this is one thing, but being able to see it (and ourselves) with perspective and hope is yet another. If we stay open to learning, we can soften our conditioned patterns of self-protection. We need compassion, courage, grace, and the clarity that we are not alone.
I am Gail Warner...
and for more than fifty years, I have walked alongside others in journeys of transformation—as a psychotherapist, a retreat leader, a community builder, a creative, a poet, and more. It remains my deepest passion; it is the work I am privileged to do.
Over the years, I've used Rumi's poem, The Guest House, as a metaphor for learning to welcome awareness of all the parts of who we are. Learning to observe our own feelings and the feelings of others, understanding the tangles we all get caught in, will help us navigate life.
Welcome…
