This “Winter Space”
Workshop is aimed at professionals, and others who engage with people on a
regular basis, and who would like to recharge and reconnect with themselves to
deepen their self-awareness and plan for the future.
Winter is the season in which we see more clearly the
structure and shape of things in nature. This Workshop will explore a parallel process in
ourselves. It offers the opportunity to
examine and reflect on your life, including your work life, to identify scope
for transformation and plan for the changes you may wish to make. Using Tofte Manor’s beautiful grounds and
rooms, our venue offers the capacity to work both in groups and as individuals,
spending time outside as well as indoors.
Utilising coaching, counselling and mindfulness, this workshop aims to
provide space to refocus and consider what you would like to do to enrich your
life during the year ahead.
In a series of four seasonal workshops, each individual retreat
day will bring awareness to one of the senses. This sensory focus will support delegates tuning
in to the natural world. The first
Workshop, ‘’Winter Space’’, will
focus on the sense of Sight to facilitate a sharper nature connection. We will explore questions like: ‘How do
you see yourself? What are you blind to,
within yourself? What is your Vision for
yourself in the future?’ We will turn to our visual exploration of the
outdoor environment to observe the winter world as we glimpse and crystallise our
insights too.
Facilitators: The Workshop
will be facilitated by Margaret Walsh and Katharine Peel. Margaret is a qualified psychotherapist,
coach and supervisor who integrates nature into enhancing understanding of
ourselves and how we can learn from nature to cope with change and become more
resilient. Katharine is a qualified
Mindfulness Coach and mental health first aid instructor, committed to
supporting people to become more embodied (finding and trusting what lies
within us) in a world where we are increasingly lost in thought.
Practicalities: Although the weather
may be cold and unpredictable, a key aspect of our Workshop will be working
outside. Amongst the grounds at Tofte
Manor is found a calm and perfect space to tune back into yourself and into nature. Please come prepared for the weather and to
walk outside - not always on hard paths! Finally, the sensory experience that will be a
feature across all 4 workshops will be taste. And so, you can expect seasonal, tasty, food
and drinks.
Pricing: The cost of this Workshop, which is limited to 15
participants, is £195 with an early-bird discount of £165 if booked by 23
November 2018.
Food and
refreshments: are included in the fee.
