Drawing on Rudolf Steiner's indications about our after-life journey and Kelly Connor's life experience and dedicated research, the workshop will confirm that we can all follow the after-life journey of those that have died because there is an inherent wisdom and elegance in the mystery of death that can be unravelled through love.

The Fool's Gift: Embracing Uncertainty and the Unknown
With Juan Korkie
Limited to 12 participants

In moments of uncertainty, doubt and unpredictability, our vulnerabilities are exposed and our securities threatened. Yet the archetype of The Fool dwells in the unknown. Uncertainty cannot threaten one who lives fully in the here-and-now. The Fool knows that between the certainties of daily living are hidden seeds for new possibility and creativity. The Fool's Gift is about embracing these seeds and moments with freshness, playfulness and curiosity. This workshop explores ways of discovering The Fool in each of us.

The Storyteller Within: Becoming the Author of Your Own Life Story
With Juan Korkie
Limited to 12 participants

There are times when we feel that we are no longer living our own lives - that we have somehow ceased to be the author of our own life story. We find that we have become the passive victims, focusing only on moments of hardship, struggle and loss. It is so easy to live from one moment to the next without stopping to capture the essence and beauty of each day. This workshop is about stopping and revisiting what we include in our own life story - what we choose to tell ourselves and others and why.
