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. <br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"></span></p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">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;</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">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.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Hearty supper and hot drinks included.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Note the event will go ahead whatever the weather.</p><h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">About Mark</h2><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">

Do you avoid difficult conversations? 
Maybe you avoid certain topics or uncomfortable conversations with certain people. 
Whatever the reason, avoiding 'clearing the air' will almost always have long term, negative consequences. Even if you can't see the impact of not dealing with the pressing issue, the resentment can build up until one day, someone will explode. 
During this two hour session, we will look at:
What is a difficult conversation?
What makes difficult conversations even more difficult?
How to prepare for difficult conversations
Understanding and managing emotions - awareness
Seeking help
Providing constructive feedback
After the session, you will be able to recognise your own barriers to approaching difficult conversations, prepare for meetings to minimise negative outcomes and manage emotions, both yours and the other persons more effectively.
