Next talk: Tuesday 16th Feb.  Malcolm Stern  - 'The Infinite Heart'. Workshop: Saturday 20th Feb.

Hi everyone

First of all, a big thanks to Tim Freke, who delivered such an enlivening and enlightening talk at our last gathering. Thanks also to Tom, our resident guitar player, who accompanied Tim on stage towards the end of his talk, as well as to Carl Munsen of the New Exeter Food Company, who took on the catering duties for the first time that evening.

Our next talk is with Malcolm Stern and is entitled The Infinite Heart - Love and Relationships in the 21st Century. Relationships have the potential to become a powerful exploration of personal and spiritual development. This talk will take us on a journey of discovery into a rich, uncharted terrain that demands a breaking free of old fossilised ideas, as we stretch towards the healing of ancient, archetypal and individual wounds and learn to develop the Infinite Heart in each of us.

The reason that this newsletter is being sent out rather earlier than usual is that Malcolm has agreed to run an experiential workshop to accompany the talk on the following Saturday, 20th February. We realise that this is fairly short notice for such a workshop and we have little time for much advertising, other than this newsletter and general word of mouth. We'd therefore like to hear as soon as possible from anyone interested in attending the workshop, so we can decide whether or not to go ahead with it. It will be limited to 15 people, on a first come first served basis, so if you're interested please get in touch. You can call me direct on 01647-231630.

The Infinite Heart Workshop

Relationships are an extraordinary opportunity for us to develop our consciousness and to confront and change patterns. This workshop will explore and seek to understand the unique potential each of us have to create beauty and harmony in our personal journey towards wholeness. Whether you are in a relationship or seeking to 'up your game', this day will provide you with tools to develop yourself and to confront your own Achilles heel.

Some of the practices we will engage with are;

• Accessing and exploring honest, authentic and heartful communication
• Becoming comfortable with anger, grief, sexuality and fear
• Liberating our potential to be extraordinary human beings
• Learning to love ourselves and in the process to love others
• Managing difficult conversations and honouring our own and another's perspective

Using a mixture of psychotherapy, movement, ritual and deep sharing and enquiry, this day will leave you enriched and inspired.

Malcolm is a psychotherapist of many years standing. He co-founded Alternatives at St. James's Church, Piccadilly and has been successfully running personal development groups for over 20 years. He is the author of 'Falling in Love / Staying in Love', and was co-presenter of Channel 4's relationship series 'Made for Each Other'. For full details of the workshop click here
