"The desert will lead you to your heart, where I will speak."
--Hosea 2:14 The Hesychia School of Spiritual Direction is for people who feel called to be spiritual directors. It is a 4-week long formation program offerred twice a year
at the Redemptorist Renewal Center, a gorgeous facility adjacant to the Saguaro National Monument West in Tucson.
The word "hesychia" means "watchful, inner stillness and silence." We call our school Hesychia because we teach a contemplative spiritual direction that evokes from the directee the kind of still watchfulness that helps them discover God's desire for their life. The Hesychia School includes classes on prayer, discernment and contemplation, self-care and ethics, and over 30 hours of practicum--a class where spiritual direction skills and sensibilities are taught and supervised. We also include an entire week on Interfaith spiritual direction, where we learn about spiritual guidance in traditions such as Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, Zen Buddhism and New Age spiritualities. A session on themes in Native American spirituality is a highlight as well. Teresa is the director of the Hesychia School and would be delighted to answer any questions you have about our program. She works out of her home office, so you may call her at (520) 290-6734 or email at tblythe@jps.net. Many important details about the Hesychia School are on the web. Click
