40 Days to Light

Our bodies, our breath and our inner spirit are gifts from God. Sometimes we lose touch with one of these areas; or we don’t know how they are all connected to each other and God. The Rooted 40 Days to Light Program helps to reflect on these areas and bring awareness to where you might be out of balance. Starting March 2022, Rooted will begin the first of six sessions in the 40 Days to Light program. The 40 days to Light program is a personal self discovery program that is done in fellowship with other women, to help motivate and inspire you to keep going in your journey towards God. The program focuses on connecting to the Divine through mind, body and soul practices. The practices utilized in this program are: prayerful meditation, exercise, mindful eating, rest, journaling and group discussion.

What does the program look like? There are 6, 90 minute, small group meetings that happen once a week for 6 weeks. Each week you will have: a theme to reflect on, journal prompts that look at self inquiry, a physical exercise practice, mindful eating goals, and a prayerful meditation practice. Each of these aspects you will work to incorporate into your daily routine. The themes, questions and practices are prayerful and will encourage you to grow more deeply in your relationship with God.

Cost: $150
Session Dates: March 8, March 15, March 22, March 29, April 5, April 12th

When I first heard about the concept of Rooted Rosary I was very intrigued and thought it would be impossible to pray and exercise at the same time- but Colleen has proved me wrong!

It’s very practical – one hour a week that I can devote to exercise and prayer at once; with a set schedule / time to pray with others, which keeps me accountable for showing up as life gets busy.

Furthermore- the intentions and messages chosen by Colleen were EXACTLY what I need to hear on a given day- I know that God’s message comes through her and keeps us all stronger (together) in our faith.

The most amazing gift I received from Rooted was to bring me back to memories praying the Rosary- growing up it was a special bonding time with my mother (Celicia) and my grandma (Vo Guima).

I didn’t realize how much I have missed it and how comforting it was to feel embraced as we prayed together at Rooted Rosary.

I look forward to sharing the same memories with my kids in the future.

Rooted has been the perfect balance of prayer and meditation. The rosary has always been very special to me, but it’s often difficult to keep my mind from wandering. Praying the rosary with movement helps me focus on the prayers and gives deeper spiritual meaning.

Colleen was the calming voice that I needed during the COVID shut down. Her classes provided a calming voice that gave me peace and a deeper spiritual connection when I need it most. An added bonus was the stretching\strengthening movements released extra tension that I was carrying.

FAQ

What is a class like?

The class is set up by placing the yoga mats a circle to symbolize our unity in Christ. It is about 1 hour long. Our main focus is on prayer, the exercises are moderately paced and can be easily modified as needed.

Do I need to know the prayers of the Rosary to come to the Rooted Rosary class?

No, Colleen will lead you through all the prayers and reflections. All are welcome to join.

What Should I Bring?

Comfortable clothes
Yoga mat (if you don’t have, we have extras)
Water

Do I need to bring my Rosary?

Only if you want to. Since we are moving and praying, we won’t have the rosary in your hands. Some people like to place their Rosary at the top of their mat. During reflections, you will be in a pose of rest and may want to hold it. It is not recommended that you bring a fragile family heirloom, as we are moving on our mats and it would be terrible to accidentally step on it.

Do I have to be Catholic to come to a Rooted Rosary class?

No. All are welcome. You don’t need to have the prayers memorized to be able to join and to participate in the class. Colleen will lead you through the mysteries and the prayers of the Rosary.

Is there a cost?

Classes start at $12. We do offer a free “Virtual Breath & Prayerful Meditation” class on Friday’s to help get you started.

Do you have virtual classes?

Yes. We will use Zoom to conduct a live class. You will need to download zoom on your mobile device. Once you have registered for a class you will receive a link and password to join us. Check the class schedule for times.

Can I tell my family and friends about the virtual class?

Yes, please! If they are interested in joining us, please direct them to our website to register for a class. Anyone can join us virtually from their home or office.

For virtual class, if I can’t join a live class are there any recordings?

Yes, if you have registered online but are unable to join us, please send an email to Colleen at [email protected] and she will send you a link to the recording.
