About Good Life Seminars

The Seminar Experience
Under the skilled guidance of experienced moderators, seminarians convene each day to discuss short selections they have read carefully in advance. These discussions are lively, interactive exchanges. Participants share experiences, insights, and wisdom, and discuss how lessons learned from the past and from each other can help shape more satisfying futures. Seminarians watch films, read poetry and plays, and participate in exercises designed to help them create robust life plans. Time is also devoted to nurturing the creative side of life as participants interact with nature in the beautiful settings where the seminar is offered.
