An Introduction to Hildegard of Bingen’s Approach to Psychotherapy

with 9 Comments

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 6:45–8:15 P.M., in person in Bloedel Hall or online via Zoom. Free, no registration required. Optional Community Dinner at 6 p.m. ($6/child; $8/adult; $25/max. family)

led by the Rev. Danae Ashley 

What can a revolutionary 12th-century Benedictine nun teach us today? Plenty! Saint Hildegard von Bingen was a polymath and a German Benedictine abbess who lived from 1098–1179 in the Rhine Valley. Her myriad of gifts have been noticed throughout history: prophetess, composer, physician and healer, environmentalist, preacher, mystic, advisor, linguist of her own secret language, and much more. You are invited to learn more about St. Hildegard and her fascinating life, focusing on her holistic approach to mental health, through an interactive presentation with the Rev. Danáe Ashley—Episcopal priest, international speaker, and author of a forthcoming book from Tehom Center Publishing on Hildegard and psychotherapy.

A Zoom link will be posted here when it is availlable.

      Yes, you can make your suggested donation for dinner at the door (cash, card, or Venmo). The forum itself is free.

    This sounds like a very interesting topic! My parents were married in a castle at Bingen am Rhine. I was born in Enkenbach-Alsenborg, Germany during the cold war…
