About the workshop: As we continue to adjust to life with COVID-19, the shape of the future remains unknown. But in the midst of this rupture in the fabric of our day-to-day lives lies an opportunity for re-evaluation and reimagining.
This two-part facilitated workshop will explore the questions: What inner alchemy is taking place within us? What do we want to take with us from this crisis and what do we want to leave behind? What are the deeper stories within this experience and how might we participate in their telling? How can we be attentive to what is emerging?
We will have space for reflection, introspection, and discussion about our experiences over the course of this pandemic, and consider together how we might choose to emerge.

Inspired by our first virtual Time To Think Alumni gatherings last month and requests for more, I'm hosting small group meet-ups starting next Monday 11th May 4pm, for those who've attended a Thinking Partnership or Foundation Course with The Thinking Field.

As a practitioner of the Thinking Environment you're profoundly attuned to how to think courageously and independently, and to create the space for others to do so. What a time to be alive, and be of service to our emergent future in whichever way you feel drawn to.

- May Alumni Sessions: May 11th 4.00 - 6.00 pm / May 26th 4.00 - 6pm
- Cost $30
- PM me for the Eventbrite link

These intimate 2hr gatherings (max 10 participants intend to provide an opportunity to:
- experience and explore creating a virtual Thinking Environment, including making use of Zoom breakout rooms for Thinking Pairs
- explore how to further integrate creating a virtual & face-to-face Thinking Environment into your professional and personal practices
- be held in the Ten Components of a Thinking Environment
- access your own freshest, independent thinking
- access the collective wisdom of the group in a Time To Think Council
- discern what action, however small, might be yours to take

Our call to fierce love

Thank you to everyone for the wonderful encouragement we received ahead of a group of us holding a first Grief circle which sprouted at a local community meeting in response to the bushfire crisis. The session was was very moving and buoying, an affirmation of the openings that can occur when the whole range of deep feelings about what is happening on our planet can be acknowledged and shared, perhaps supporting us to respond from a more creative rather than reactive place. Thank you to co-host and horticultural therapist Pascal Pitot for the magnificent seed offerings below and to Lan Diep for the fabulous pic. A huge thank you to co-hosts Caroline Lambert, Peter K Abrahams, Keren & Pascal Pitot for your willingness to experiment and your joyfulness, and to our attendees for their courage and deep compassion. And thank you to the work of Nancy Kline's Thinking Environment, Joanna Macy's Work that Reconnects and Gabrielle Roth's 5 Rhythms for holding us all.
