Life—and gardens—offer us many chances to rebalance, readjust, prune, and propagate. Wisdom … our bodies … even (or especially) relationships may need a rebalancing of time and attention. And with care, a fruitful life can bloom—even in the midst of weeds, disappointments, and heartbreak.

Give yourself the grace and space to remember how precious you are—and how precious this life is.

Caring for ourselves isn’t selfish—it’s essential. And your self care might just start with lighting a candle, popping in your earbuds, and listening to a reminder that your needs are important too.

There are innumerable ways we can be hard on ourselves. Our internal chatter is often like Gremlins hosting a mad, mean, dance party. Let’s stop the chatter and self-shaming, practicing together.

Who carries you when you need support? And who do you carry when they need you? Showing up matters. Community matters. Let’s talk about it.

This is one of those times it feels good to be talked about.

Listen in on a conversation between our director, Mary Bea Sullivan and our supporter and fellow dreamer, The Rev. John Burruss who talk with the co-hosts of the The Leader’s Way, a podcast of Berkeley Divinity School at Yale.

What does it mean to be “in community”? It’s a phrase we hear often. At the Threshold Center, these are the guidelines we use to provide a true place of belonging for all. Come. Be a part of our community.

Sometimes we need a life raft, or at least a buoy.  Accepting help can be difficult… and beautiful. Grab hold. We are going to do this together.

Dealing with cancer or chronic illness? We care, and we have facilitators who are certified to help you find peace in this process. One of these programs is Yoga for Healing. More programs are coming each season. Keep checking back.

Our logo was designed with all of our Threshold Center friends in mind: reflecting hope and providing a space to cross the thresholds of life, together.
