The Content
Module 1 - The Path to Inner Union
with Hannah Bowler
DATES TBC
Union is the deepest seeking of the soul; union with ourselves, union with another, union with our life. To be in union is to feel complete and to be at peace within the tension of opposites which exists in the world and most importantly within ourselves.
This module introduces the concept of inner union, we will explore the paths and approaches to attaining this sense on unity, oneness, or wholeness, what our individual experiences or tastes of it have been, and begin to outline the areas of our lives to focus on in order to begin our journey along this path. Most of us can attest to feeling like we can go several different directions with our thoughts and desires, that there are multiple versions of us flighting to be in the driving seat - this module looks at how we can bring together these various parts of the self, unifying them to create one happy family.

Module 2 - Integrating the Shadow
with Hannah Bowler
DATES TBC
Carl Jung, the founder of analytical psychology coined the term “shadow” when describing the unconscious and repressed aspects of an individual's personality. The shadow includes both positive and negative aspects of one's personality that have been suppressed or denied. These may include aspects that the individual finds socially unacceptable, morally questionable, or simply uncomfortable. The shadow can encompass repressed desires, emotions, instincts, and traits that are not in line with the individual's conscious self-image.
In this Module Hannah will draw upon Jung’s theory of the shadow and the ways we can begin to work with what exists within it, freeing up energy that we had been cut off from. This module will support the union of light and dark which exists in the shadow, unlocking some of the gifts you may not have been aware you had. Through exercises and practices you will begin the journey of working with your own shadow and begin a deep process of coming into your authentic self.

Module 3 - Alchemising Shame
with Claire Killilea
DATES TBC
We all carry shame, we inherit it from family and society, it is one of the biggest drains on our energy and greatest limitations on our authentic expression.
Working with shame as medicine means that we look at the gifts that shame gives, we see it as information that allows us to access our shadow. Our shadow is where our power lies and shame is the gateway to activate it. We are not born with shame however we all have it! Lets work with it!
In this module Claire will guide you in a deep process of bringing light to the shame you hold, supporting you to move into a new way of embodying to your Power, Work, Sensuality, Money and Sovereignty. On the other side of shame is your deepest desires, lets claim them!

Module 4 - Reparenting your Inner Child
with Dr Deirdre Walsh
DATES TBC
Everything starts with childhood, so much of how we move through the world; what we fear, our beliefs, and how we relate, stem from our childhood experiences and upbringing. A healthy connection to our inner child brings creativity and playfulness to our lives, however our wounded inner child can also become activated, taking the steering wheel, directing our communication or decision making, often in ways that doesn’t serve us.
In this module psychologist Deirdre Walsh will guide you through introspective exercises and guided reflections, you will meet with your inner child and begin to identify and address the needs of this part of your being. Deirdre will introduce nurturing practices to cultivate a compassionate relationship with your inner child, fostering healing and resilience, and integrating your child to bring more play and creativity to your life.

Module 5 - Working with the Elements
with Jenny O’Hare
DATES TBC
Our sense of Inner Union is intrinsically linked with our connection to the earth, and there is much to be learned from observing and connecting with the natural cycles and energies of the elements.
Like the diverse ecosystems of the Earth, our inner landscapes are intricate and interconnected, and we have the capacity to move between states of being, just in the way the sun can shine or the winds might roar.
In this module Jenny will guide you in connecting with the wisdom of nature and seeing her reflections within your inner landscape. You will become more in tune with the diverse range of expressions and experiences which we all natural hold, and learn to bring them into harmony, balancing the natural ecosystem that you hold within, just as nature demonstrates for us.

Module 6 - Embodying the Archetypes
with Wayne Dignam
DATES TBC
There is something essential about myths, stories and archetypes that mean something to us. Stories are the universal currents of history and contain archetypal energies that we resonate with at a deep unconscious level. Which archetypes do you know about and where do they come from?
In this module, Wayne will explore: Fairy stories and myths that can hold some essential truth about our soul’s journey and sacred contract. Archetypal stories that reveal aspects of a person’s unconscious life and underlying relational patterns. How we create our own stories and how we are largely unconscious of what story we might be living. Integrating archetypes into our nervous system and hearts to create a more authentic and tender connection. Becoming conscious, so that we stop living, acting and behaving as the character archetypes we identify with.
