This sought-after experience previously offered at Loyola House in Guelph, is now being offered at Galilee Centre. Living with Soul in the Second Half of Life is an interactive experience for people who have entered their older adult years (over 40!), and are noticing subtle whisperings of soul; perhaps stronger desires to go within and new desires beckoned by the horizon of their furthest decades. The second half of life can be deeply rich and meaningful, especially if we’re able to listen and respond to the subtle promptings of soul.
If the hallmarks of the first half of life are building: building relationships, careers, home and perhaps families – the second half of life wants to lead us toward a different journey: finding meaning, deepening relationship with self and others, and living with wonder and beauty alongside the mystery of death. Being able to respond to the promptings of the second half of life becomes easier as we turn our gaze inward, toward soul, and deepen our understanding of our inner landscape.
Please note that both weekends are part of this one course: November 19-22, 2026 AND February 18-21, 2027. For both retreat weekends, the program will start on Thursday at 7pm and will end after lunch on the Sunday (by 1 or 2pm). As there will be no dinner served on the Thursday evenings, we encourage you to visit one of the many wonderful local restaurants in Arnprior.
