Come and Join us in Co-creating Conscious Community
Imagine how liberating it would be to be part of a group of people who are learning together to put words to the ever more subtle experiences of the inner world and our experiences of grief, transformation and consciousness, and then using that as a springboard into creative empowerment.
We are entering a new and exciting stage of the Sitting with Death and Choosing Life Programme – we’re building an engaged community around the practice.
Our community will be based on the following values and principles:
To support the practice of sitting with death and choosing life through the process of inquiry and deep discovery;
To educate, encourage, empower and equip our individual and collective conscious healing and creative paths;
To co-create a new compassionate culture through participating, sharing authentically, growing a common language, holding intention and taking creative actions.
The community is open to you if you have participated in any of our Sitting with Death and Choosing Life courses or if you now attend one of our monthly Deep Discovery Conversations or Skills-based Workshops. To join please send a message on the contact form below, making sure you include your email address.
For the next few months, until early September 2023, we will be piloting the community, making sure we are offering you what you need and that everything is working smoothly. This will be free trial. Then, in September we will invite you into a paid membership – with the first, participant tier, free of fees.
As a Participant
You will have the opportunity to connect by engaging in a weekly written inquiry in our online community site and a community check-in circle where you can share whatever is on your mind and heart in relation to your own conscious journey.
As an Explorer
You opt for a deeper level of engagement. In addition to the online inquiry and check-in circle there will also be a monthly themed deep discovery conversation or skills-based workshop plus access to our library of resources.
As a Practitioner
You are practicing, or in training to be, a facilitator in the programme, or you are involved in similar work, or doing creative work such as writing or other forms of sacred activism. The focus will be on developing skills through support and supervision, deepening our understanding of the creative process and taking empowered creative actions.
Our experience so far has shown us that:
- Sitting with Death and Choosing Life is a lifelong practice and a transformational journey.
- Grief is a natural stage of the creative process of life and, when we are willing to sit with it, holds many gifts and can be a portal to new possibilities.
- Choosing to embody thriving life through troubled times is challenging.
- We have the opportunity at this time to inhabit an expanded, holistic, integrated and compassionate consciousness, and none of us can do this alone.
- For those of us on a conscious healing and creative path the choice to come together in intentional groups for the practice of inquiry and deep discovery uplifts our own lives and ripples out into the collective consciousness. This is evolutionary.
- An essential part of the SWDCL process is creative empowerment – authentic self-expression and the ability to take creative action on behalf of the whole of life.
- The choice for expanded consciousness and co-creative community can be the greatest adventure of our lives.
To get the community off to a good start, I am offering two (fee-free) events
