Stories focus our attention, organize our resources, give us meaning, a sense of place, and-when they are in turmoil-can lead to wholly changed lives. They are like the great wind behind our sails and have been so since the first literature of Homer and Genesis. Today, we have the consciousness to change these stories and create new meaning. Craig Barnes first began to use stories as a trial lawyer, and then in 15 years of international negotiations, and finally as the author of In Search of the Lost Feminine, an award-winning study in cultural anthropology.

The Place: Mabel Dodge Luhan House, Taos, New Mexico, is an historic inn and conference center that has accommodated many of the great art and literary minds for the past eighty years. Its rich cultural heritage is enhanced by adobe charm, quiet patios and tree-lined acequias.

The Dates:
Friday evening, March 6 through noon, Monday, march 10, 2008.

The costs:
$1100 shared room
$1250 single room.

Fee includes lodging, all meals, tips, and semar materials including two books.

Now, more than ever, old myths that glorify war, oppress women, disconnect from the earth or deny spiritual ecstasy are no longer useful to guide human development. Understanding the storied origins of those patriarchal norms fills us at first with fury and then grief and then, at last, the possibility for liberation.

These discussions will include pictures and slides and will run from September 26, 2007, each Wednesday evening for seven weeks through November 7, between 7:00 and 9:00PM.
