| Discover the delights of giving and receiving a
simple, relaxing massage. Designed for people with
little or no previous experience who want the skills
and confidence to give family and friends a safe and
nurturing massage. Come with your spouse, partner
or friend. You will work with your partner mainly on
the floor and in chairs. There will be some couches
for those whose knees or backs require it, but we
need to know at the time of booking. Covering quick
and accessible areas like hands, feet and shoulders,
plus delicious full body massage. An easy way to
reduce stress, promote wellbeing, and enhance
communication and tenderness in relationships.
Philippa Wackerbarth has 25 years of experience
in massage, and regularly helps on 12,000-mile
Service weeks. She will be assisted by Jan Kaye, a
member of the Sheldon Community. |

| The Enneagram is a beautifully accurate model
of human personality and spirit. Each of the nine
types has its own unconscious habits of perception
which in turn create typical emotional concerns
and behaviour patterns. Combining the wisdom of
ancient sacred tradition and modern psychological
insight the model enables us to harmonise our own
lives and understand others better. It fosters spiritual
unfolding and helps understand the predictable
changes of personality under conditions of stress. |

Participants need to have completed part 1 and be
confident of their Type. The course explores the key
psychological props that automatically generate the
subjective point of view of your Type: Identification;
Payoffs and Secondary Gains; Spiritual materialism;
and Mirroring (positioning yourself so others reflect your false identity back to you). How we get stuck,
and how to unstick ourselves! Meditations, panels,
group work and pair exercises.
The oral tradition has its own distinctive style, and
Karen Webb is one of the country’s leading teachers
in this tradition. She trained with Helen Palmer and
has taught for over 15 years. |

| Creation Centred Spirituality looks at the world which
God created and saw that it was ‘very good’. It is
a very positive and life-enhancing way of looking
at the world and our place in it under God. Coming
from the oldest Wisdom tradition of the bible it has
been re-kindled more recently by Matthew Fox. The
four paths will be explored through a variety of input
and group and individual exercises: the Via Positiva
(delight, joy awe), the Via Negativa (silence, letting
go, suffering, grief), the Via Creativa (creativity) and
the Via Transformativa (compassion, celebration,
justice-making).
Gordon Jeff and Dorothy Nicholson both have wide
experience of parish ministry and spiritual direction
training. They regularly lead workshops at Sheldon. |
