The Seven Soul Types, as indicated by Rudolf Steiner (Presentation and discussion)

Jennifer Goodman, M.Ed. has done extensive research on the Seven Soul Types. She is an anthroposophically trained counselor, offering child, teen, and adult counseling, workshops, and parent coaching. She is a certified Waldorf Collaborative Counselor, Simplicity Parenting Coach, and Social Inclusion Coach. She received her Master’s in the Waldorf Experienced Educators program at Antioch University.

Imprinted in us on our spiritual journey to this lifetime, the soul types are often overlooked in favor of the temperaments to describe character and personality. While the latter is expressed in the etheric body and is more fixed, the soul types work through the astral body, with potential for development throughout our lives. This is a powerful model for working effectively with different styles and developing new ways of approaching situations that balance and support us. Through this model, we can come to understanding ourselves better and how we affect those in our lives. This is a practical look at questions such as: How does your individual way of being in the world fit in with others? What capacities serve you best as you create what you want in your life?

Easter Festival

ASinGB Festivals Committee warmly invites you to join us for our Easter festival. As the sun’s rays awaken us from our wintry slumber, our deep inner ponderings can now bring forth a more clear and bright experience of the resurrection of the Spirit. Though the Mystery of Golgotha remains ineffable, we hope that together we may strive towards embodying the “Spirit Triumphant” in our daily lives. We encourage you to read the lecture by Steiner, “Spirit Triumphant” in preparation for the festival, which will include an opportunity for sharing. This lecture can be found at this link: https://wn.rsarchive.org/Lectures/Dates/19210327p01.html

The Festival will be Saturday, April 10th 4 – 5:30 pm on Zoom.

Anthroposophical Medicine Round Table

Four New England Anthroposophical Physicians take up the questions: What is the meaning of illness? What is important in medicine? What is medicine? What is healing? What is Anthroposophical Medicine? Why would you seek an anthroposophical physician?  What is the patient/doctor partnership? 

Dr. Einstein is an Anthroposophic/family medicine doctor practicing in Freeport and Rockport, Maine.  After a first career in industrial energy efficiency Dr Einstein began his journey in medicine as a volunteer in several free clinics.  As he got more involved in medicine he found himself drawn to both conventional and holistic forms of medicine.  He trained as an herbalist at the Blue Otter School and then went on to medical school at Case Western in Cleveland, Ohio.  He met his wife there, and both of them came back to New England for residency training at Maine-Dartmouth in Augusta. He completed residency in 2011 and is now board certified in Family Medicine, Integrative Medicine, and Anthroposophic medicine. Dr. Einstein’s website is http://holistic-einstein.com

Holy Nights Festival

In preparation for our Holy Nights Festival, we invite you to contemplate the following:

As you receive the natural phenomena around the holy nights into your soul, what arises as an inner image of the Christ birthing within? For example, you might notice the stillness of a tree with bare branches, or the stillness after a snowfall (before the generators turn on!)

You are welcome to share your experience during our festival via any modality that feels right to you: art, story, poem or song are a few possibilities.
