Four Day Therapeutic Writing Course ONLINE 

📅 Date:  Friday 18th – Monday 21st December 2026
📍 Location: Online

 Join an intimate and confidential group from the cosy comfort of your own home, for this therapeutic workshop during the dark mornings of Solstice. This writing experience will run very deep: the Peenebaker method we will use is evidence-based for deep support with and integration of traumatic memories. Solstice is a time for letting go, and we meet in the mornings so that your body and mind have time during the day to settle – well ahead of bedtime. You will be supported every step of the way in this confidential, powerful and tender group workshop.

Literary Salon Double Bill – Let Them and The Courage to Be Disliked – Mel Robbins and Alfred Adler

📅 Date:  Sunday 1st March @9am-11am
📍 Location: Heaton

Mel Robbins’ book ‘Let Them’ and The Courage to be Disliked by Ichiro Kishimi and Fumitake Koga are massive bestsellers. Do they offer anything further to the work of Adler around the turn of the century, or the Stoics? We’ll gather for a lovely Sunday morning with warm drinks and cosy company to share our reactions and experiences! Let’s see how these ‘this book will change your life’ books can help us reflect from a depth or archetypal psychology perspective.

Literary Salon – Kathryn Mannix

📅 Date: January 25th, 2025
📍 Location: Heaton Consulting Rooms

Palliative care consultant Kathryn is coming to speak with our intimate reading group in January. We are very lucky to have Kathryn visit us and to be with us to discuss the powerful and life-affirming stories of death and dying. Kathryn asks: what is the value – or otherwise – of telling these stories to help us prepare for our own death and the deaths of those we love.
