Way of Council & Community

Way of Council - Creating Community

Peace & Refuge in uncertain times

“Communication leads to community, that is, to understanding, intimacy and mutual valuing.”

- Rollo May

Listening, Belonging and Co-Creation

Community is both a place and a space of shared values - held together by care, integrity, and a sense that we matter to one another. Join us in the Way of Council - an ancient and evolving practice of deep listening and authentic speaking from the heart. Together, we create a space where each voice is welcomed, every story belongs, and silence is held with reverence.

This Way of Council Course is for those who long to:

Feel a deeper sense of belonging
Contribute creativity and care to something meaningful
Explore what it means to live in harmony - with self, others, and the natural world
Honour difference while nurturing unity
Be a part of and create a field of trust, acceptance, and shared values

Council invites us to sit in a circle, without hierarchy or competition. It is a practice of interconnection - where each voice matters, and each presence and story supports’ the whole.

Together, we will explore:

How to listen with the whole body
How to speak our truth in a field of trust
How to live with integrity and mutual support
What it means to co-create a living culture of care

“We have all known the long loneliness, and we have found that the answer is community” -

Dorothy Day
