And while they are not the only meetings that elected members will be asked to attend, committee meetings, in particular, are a mainstay of the political management process.</p><p>Effective chairing is important because it can provide clear leadership and direction, ensure that debates are focused and balanced, enable decisions to be reached and ensure that resources are used to best effect.</p><p>This two-hour 'masterclass'-style workshop will help elected members to understand their role, offer some approaches and ideas that will help to tackle typical challenges, and help to generally improve their effectiveness as a chair.</p><ul><li>To understand the skills and qualities of a good chair</li><li>To learn ideas and approaches for chairing a successful meeting that is on time and achieves its outcomes</li><li>To understand the protocols and boundaries for appropriate meeting etiquette and the chair's role in managing this effectively</li><li>To appreciate how to manage yourself and others appropriately</li><li>To take away personal actions to apply to your role</li></ul><section>

Life is hectic. Finding time out feels almost impossible. We want to pray, we want to reflect, but when we do find a snatched moment to ourselves, we remain distracted.
I've designed this space to help you reconnect with your breath, to gently stretch your body, and to listen... to the voice of your inner wisdom, and to the voice of your Beloved. 
We will meditate with scripture, we will journal, we will use creative means to listen to the Spirit.
We will sit with Love.
I hope you will come away feeling centred, refreshed and assured of your belovedness.
 Two hours, on Zoom.
"Come away with me to a quiet place"

The sessions will be shaped around the following themes this year:
October: Teresa of Avila
November: Letting Go
December: Advent / Expectant Hope
January: The Gifts of Winter Darkness
February: Love
March: Lent
April: No Session
May: Resurrection / Spring
June: TBC

July: The Gifts of Summer

You are invited to participate from the comfort of your own home. Ideally you'll be able to find a little space where you won't be interrupted. You might wish to ask those you share space with to help you protect this time by respecting your privacy.
All who sign up will be sent a link to the recording of the retreat which will remain live until the following session. If you would like to participate via recording, simply register for the event. It would be great if you could let me know that you won't be with us in real time.

font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">A previous participant says:</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;"><em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">&#39;This programme really helped me to find a language with which to fully&nbsp;</em><em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">understand discernment processes for myself and for my facilitating the development of others.&rsquo;&nbsp;</em></p><p id="isPasted" fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Discernment is not something that we &lsquo;do&rsquo; at certain moments of decision in life.&nbsp;&nbsp;Rather it is the stance we should assume in every aspect of life and can be articulated in the question &lsquo;how am I centred and responsive to God?&rsquo;</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">As course leaders and people responsible for the formation of spiritual directors, we need to be aware of our own discernment processes if we are to enable others to grow in their ability to discern well.&nbsp;&nbsp;Such awareness also enables us to offer congruence between the formation programme we are a part of, the nature of spiritual accompaniment and being faithful to God in life.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Over the course of the four day sessions, we will enable participants to engage with questions such as:&nbsp;</p><ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">What do you pay attention to within your own experience?&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Why do you pay attention to that?<span fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-class="Apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span></li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">How do you respond to what you notice?</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">What choices do you make?</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">How does all of this apply to you personally, your role as a spiritual director and your role in the formation of spiritual directors.</li></ul><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">&nbsp;These will be explored in relation to the &lsquo;triangle model&rsquo; of relationships within spiritual direction &ndash; a model which helps to sharpen awareness of the multiple aspects of discernment that we need to pay attention to.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">The programme will be experiential, involving small group work as well as plenary sessions. &nbsp;Participants will also be expected to take time to reflect and continue to work with their own process in between sessions.</p><p id="isPasted" fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text);

Discernment Formation for Course Leaders
with Rachel Overton and Nick Helm
This programme aims to enable course leaders to develop or sharpen up discernment processes within formation programmes for spiritual directors from all traditions. 
A previous participant says:
'This programme really helped me to find a language with which to fully understand discernment processes for myself and for my facilitating the development of others.’ 
Discernment is not something that we ‘do’ at certain moments of decision in life. Rather it is the stance we should assume in every aspect of life and can be articulated in the question ‘how am I centred and responsive to God?’
As course leaders and people responsible for the formation of spiritual directors, we need to be aware of our own discernment processes if we are to enable others to grow in their ability to discern well. Such awareness also enables us to offer congruence between the formation programme we are a part of, the nature of spiritual accompaniment and being faithful to God in life. 
Over the course of the four day sessions, we will enable participants to engage with questions such as: 
What do you pay attention to within your own experience?
Why do you pay attention to that?
How do you respond to what you notice?
What choices do you make?
How does all of this apply to you personally, your role as a spiritual director and your role in the formation of spiritual directors.
 These will be explored in relation to the ‘triangle model’ of relationships within spiritual direction – a model which helps to sharpen awareness of the multiple aspects of discernment that we need to pay attention to.
The programme will be experiential, involving small group work as well as plenary sessions. Participants will also be expected to take time to reflect and continue to work with their own process in between sessions.
By the end of the programme, participants can expect to:
be more aware of their own process and language of discernment
have greater awareness of how discernment is lived in spiritual direction and spiritual direction formation
be more secure in their role as a trainer enabling discerning processes
have clarity about ways in which this discerning stance can be developed in the course they are involved in
All sessions will run on Zoom from 9.45am to 4.15pm
Previous participants share their responses to this programme: 
‘A safe space to open your heart to the unexpected.’
‘It opens up the process of discerning far better than reading it in a book.'
‘[It] may well change your perception of what discernment is all about and, with practice, it will change the way you live and pray. I would thoroughly recommend this learning process and experience.’
‘Approach with an attentive, open heart, recognising the potential to go deeper through exploring discernment by journeying both as individual and with others.’
‘A very in-depth programme that really gets to the heart of discernment. Don’t miss it - it can change your life!!’
‘It wasn't until I experienced this programme with Nick and Rachel that it became obvious how vital this clarification of, and approach to discernment is, and would whole-heartedly recommend this empowering course to the most seasoned of trainers as well as those just starting out.’
