<h1 id="isPasted" fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Cosmos Connections and Contemplations</h1>When was the last time you looked up at the night sky with wide-eyed curiosity, appreciating the magic and awe of the stars? The practice of mindful stargazing is about immersing yourself in the experience of the night time and developing a first-hand, experiential knowledge of what it is not to look out at the Universe, but to &lsquo;be&rsquo; in this vast Universe of ours. During the evening we&rsquo;ll be exploring a variety of mindful stargazing practices, focussing on contemplating our place within the cosmos and our connections to it &ndash; scientifically, energetically and spiritually.&nbsp;Before going outside, we&rsquo;ll practice a cosmic body scan, sensing different parts of our body and how they&rsquo;re made of stuff that was produced in stars billions of years ago. Then as we go outdoors, we&rsquo;ll spend some time immersing ourselves in the experience of the night sky as it is (clear or cloudy), and explore how we can feel part of the cosmos, at home in this vast universe of ours. We&rsquo;ll finish by contemplating some amazing images of space and exploring some of the myths and stories associated with the constellations.Hearty supper and hot drinks included.Note the event will go ahead whatever the weather.<h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">About Mark</h2>

Tokes Farm, Dorset was a perfect venue. You have such a gift for creating a relaxed and engaging atmosphere. The way you brought together your astronomical knowledge, Zen training, yoga and chi gong teaching was and is, a great blessing. My senses were heightened and I felt relaxed, energised and engaged throughout the evening. I felt as though I had travelled to the outer reaches of the universe and back. It was a very enriching, unique opportunity and evening. Thank you!! &ndash; Gail (Nov 22) What a thought provoking and stimulating occasion it was.

My session with Pinky allowed me the time to ‘think out loud’ all the factors that were in play and my feelings towards them. She then worked out the barriers I was experiencing and seamlessly worked through them with me. She then gave me tools to continue to work past those barriers with some very achievable goals! I instantly felt like I had a better perspective on this change and felt less chaotic in my thoughts. Thanks, Pinky! - Gemma (Edinburgh)

Electricity is the lifeblood of modern society, it enhances our quality of life and we are becoming
 increasingly reliant on it to power tools and devices we use for work and entertainment. However,
 although electricity has many benefits it can also be a hidden killer as it can&rsquo;t be seen, felt, smelled
 or heard until someone comes into contact with it.&nbsp;&nbsp;This course will start by covering the many benefits electricity brings to society, as well as its key
 components voltage, current and resistance. It will explain the two main types of electricity, cover
 UK accident and death statistics, and describe a simple way of remembering the electrical hazards. It
 then goes on to provide basic instructions about how you could safely help someone you suspect has
 received an electric shock.&nbsp;&nbsp;Towards the end of the course it includes an overview of the main standards, guidance and
 legislation that control the use of electricity in the workplace, and finish off by looking at simple
 maintenance plans and portable appliance testing including who within an organisation would be
 best to carry out the various checks.
