"Mere knowledge will not bring total realisation of the self. Deeper insightful experiences should accompany it."

Personal Development Workshops

A heart centred approach designed to develop people to achieve in work and life.

Valuing Yourself

Values are the pillars that provide the strength to uphold purpose and meaning in your life. This workshop will help you to identify your values and to explore where your values originated from using the technique of reflective practice. You will begin to explore what opportunities you have to express your values in your work and everyday life. Register your interest here.

Living Your Values

The workshop will begin by exploring in more depth how you express your values and what prevents you living your values.  You will look at your beliefs and how they help or hinder you to achieve a sense of purpose and meaning in your life. You will reflect on your your day-to-day thoughts and actions and how to align your behaviours with your values. Register your interest here. 

Developing Self-awareness

The workshop introduces techniques for developing self-awareness. Self-awareness comes from reading the cues in our environment and also exploring the inner self. You will experience how to become more intuitively aware of your response to situations and people and what these responses might mean. Silence and meditiation will be used to encourage a greater connection with your inner self, your environment and your purpose in the world. Ultimately you will be better able to be in the present moment and become more aware of your own unique potential. Register your interest here.

Building Open and Transparent Relationships

The workshop examines how we connect with people and how we build trusting relationships. We will look at what prevents us from revealing our true self to others and how this impacts on our relationships.  Explore your own view of yourself so you can begin to develop the self-acceptance and courage required to communicate your aspirations and uncertainties. Develop the capability to listen so we hear the heart and soul of what others say, not just the words. Experiment with words to understand their deeper meaning and the importance of choosing your words well. Register your interest here.

Growing Your Self and Others.

Consolidate what you have learned about yourself and your relationships from the other workshops.  You are extraordinary in the sense that you have an ongoing focus on learning about your Self; you can use this information to lead yourself and others.

Explore the power of role-modelling and mentors for your own growth and for the growth of others. Add your own unique flavour to leading in your family, your community or your workplace by drawing on your internal values as a guide to lead and develop yourself and others.

Identify your skills and capabilities to take you into whatever role you choose to play. Build on your strengths and unique potential as you set the goals for your ongoing journey of self-discovery and development. Register your interest here.
