Introduction Day to The Way of Council
London - postponed to 2019
Through the practice of Council, we learn the balance and wisdom of the circle
Council is an ancient form and a modern practice that invokes the experience of community, where we listen to everything – people, place, and spirit. The roots of Council are within the natural world, spanning all cultures and beliefs.
At the core of Council is a practice of speaking and listening from the heart. Council is a form that can go beyond tools and techniques and has the potential to create a way and path towards decision-making and finding solutions. Council reaches goals and visions that include every person in the circle touching the depths of our passions and life stories. It provides a way of bearing witness and of peace making and helps cultivate non-hierarchical power. From this place of inclusiveness and acceptance, diversity and difference, we find an inner knowing and answers arrive. We experience deep wisdom and the connection to all life.
