“Nature has a soul level just as we humans have. On that level we are one. On that level they are all knowing just as we are all knowing. I think that we in the western world need to stop and listen.” Dorothy Maclean

Dear Friends,
A Happy New Year to you all wherever you are in the world.
We are celebrating twice in 2022! Our 60th birthday as a whole community on 17 November and our 50th birthday as the Foundation on 9 May. The three founders could not have predicted this when they arrived!
On 17 November 1962, Dorothy, Eileen and Peter arrived here in their caravan, having been asked to leave their jobs and home with just four hours notice. From that unpromising beginning has flourished an international centre for transformative learning, a thriving global community that connects all of us – wherever we are in the world – to our essence and to this beautiful landscape which
holds Findhorn.
As Covid restrictions ease further, we are very excited about reopening and are planning a full programme of online and onsite events and workshops in 2022. We have new online programmes, the opportunity to come back and visit in person – Cluny is reopening in March with
the launch of our new-look Experience Week – and so many free offerings and ways to connect with us on social media.
We hope that you can come and visit us here in Scotland soon – we look forward to welcoming you, whether you have never been before or can’t wait to get back!

Creating the life you long to live
|
|
|
To connect and build our global community and strengthen our network of light and love all around the planet, we are going to hold a new four month online programme, Creating Findhorn Where You Are, and you are wholeheartedly invited to join us.
By living a life that’s physically, emotionally and spiritually healthy and whole and loving those around us we can co-create a thriving world in harmony with nature, ourselves and each other.
Findhorn exists to help us to find our
path and walk in it. Over four months, we will walk together through eight steps that connect you with the Findhorn Foundation and help you to thrive in the world – wherever you are.
In our time together many of us Findhorn Community members will share how we embody our core practices in different areas of our lives. In this sacred place of connection and belonging we will explore which steps you would like to take in your own life to create the life you really want to live.
- This programme starts on the 28 February, running every Monday 3-5pm for 16 weeks until the 13 June

Welcoming you back to Scotland – Onsite Programmes in March
|
|
|
|
Saturday 26 March (4 days)
|
|
|
Explore how your place in the birth order shaped you and how as an eldest daughter you may be even more of your responsible and remarkable selves.
|
|
|
You may not have thought about it before, but women who are the firstborn in their family are very similar: an analysis of this can provide important personal insights and learning. In general eldest daughters are the responsible, the dutiful, thoughtful, hands-on and caring ones who still wonder if they have done enough. Sound familiar?
The Eldest Daughter Retreat provides a life-affirming opportunity to look at these defining qualities over four days, together with other firstborn
women from many walks of life. Allowing yourself to become more conscious of common eldest daughter patterns is bound to bring greater freedom of choice and movement.
Your hosts are Gill Emslie, Jayn Sterland and Lisette Schuitemaker.

The Angel for January is Love
|
|
|
The essence of contentment and the foundation of serenity. Love is the activation of your spirit reaching out to make connections. It overcomes grief, harbours no ill will and heals all separation.

Don’t miss a thing!
Have a wonderful January!
