Workshop

Allowing & Letting Go as a Practice

Sunday 16 February

10.00 am – 3.00 pm 

Queens Hall Queens Hall, Charlestown, Fife

 

Over the years I have learned that “All human beings seek to be held and heard. If these primal needs are not met, we will find skillful and unskillful ways of meeting these needs”. For me the practice is about bringing the unskillful into my awareness and meeting it with compassion. It’s not trying to change or criticise but to accept that this what is happening. The acceptance is the healing relationship with ourselves and others. Indeed for some of us many of the unskilled ways of being have been necessary to survive and get this far, but do they serve us now? Many people tell me that they can cognitively understand the invitation to allow and let go their experience, but don’t know how to practically do this. Therefore the focus of the workshop will be to unpack the techniques and practices of RAIN and Tong Ling.
There will be time for practice, sharing in circles and journaling.
Cost £45.00

You will need a yoga mat, a blanket, a cushion, a notebook, a pen, and curiosity

I love Bill’s teachings. I always feel comfortable, valued, and accepted. I feel like his courses are a kind of connection to a Sangha, and being amongst like minded people is amazing. He organises excellent venues, if sometimes a little cold! I feel like I can speak, be heard, and contribute openly without feeling too self conscious. More importantly, I can hear the experience and opinions of others and that helps my learning and understanding immensely. I am on a journey (and probably will be forever!) but Bill’s workshops help me to stay on track and facilitate my journey.

Really enjoyed the ‘workshop’ format, being able to engage and share experiences and reflections with different members of the group. The teaching part was so enlightening; it helped me to reflect on what’s going on for me and ways I might reframe my responses to my thoughts and actions.

It was a fab day, I was able to learn about myself and have connections with like minded people.
