1. Conscious Relationships for Coaches Training Workshop – with Anne Welsh and Sue Cruse – in  October 2023
Dates & Times:
• Sunday Oct. 8th 2pm – 5pm and Monday Oct. 9th10 – 5pm – GROUP PROCESS.
• Sunday Oct. 22nd 10 – 5pm and Monday Oct. 23rd 2pm – 5pm.
3 days of online workshops, split over 4 days  – Fee: £450 + VAT
Please note the course will take place provided the minimum number of people attending have been met two weeks before its start date.
The overall theme or context will be ‘Using self in coaching and facilitation – looking inwardly and responding outwardly with authenticity’. The first offer within his will be a three day programme (2 x 1.5 days, a month apart) of Conscious Relationships for Coaches, that will be facilitated by Anne Welsh and Sue Cruse.

The format involves a half-day training in the Soul of Relationships, followed by a one day group Conscious Relationships Workshop. A second workshop day takes place one month later, followed by a half-day learning review in relation to coaching. Anne’s introduction and context for this work is included below.

Anne Welsh says:
The programme will enable participants to come more fully into conscious relationship with themselves.  With an enhanced capacity for conscious relationship there is a greater opportunity to be more fully present and available in the here and now.  This will be coupled with an increased level of response-ability in life situations.  For participants whose working environments place them in leadership positions in relation to others, as leaders, coaches, therapeutic counsellors or psychotherapists, the possibility is released of a greater degree of inner authority both personally and professionally.  Trusting the capacity to hold both individuals and groups from a place of inner connectedness rather than external authority can, in turn, release the capacity for growth and development in both personal and professional environments.

  • Creative Coaching – with Heather Mullin

  • hear the benefits experienced by clients
  • participate in a number of creative activities
  • practice the art of creative coaching

This session will run from 9-4.30. Dates available are 14th June and 11th October

  • The Neuro-diverse Coach – with Heather Mullin

Dr Edward Hallowell describes ADHD as, “having a turbo-charged mind like a Ferrari but with the brakes of a bike”.  This no doubt resonates for all of us who have been diagnosed as having ADHD.  As neuro diverse coaches we face a number of challenges offset by some unique qualities.  In this half day session specially for coaches who are neuro-diverse we will  develop a personal inventory of these skills as well as identifying strategies to cope with the challenges.
Sessions will run from 9.00-1.00 .  Dates available 26th April and 1st November.
Cost £100 + VAT

 6. Psychosynthesis Coaching Forum

Anne Welsh will be facilitating the forum this year, with an expanded context, that draws upon Group Analysis Principles alongside Psychosynthesis. This means part of our participation is looking at what happens to us in large groups. One dimension of the learning here is what impacts on us and stops us speaking and/or want to fill the space? The other dimension of course is ‘Self’ and what happens to allow ‘Self’ to enter the space. The content will be what is arising out of the consciousness of the group.

This Forum will take place on the first Thursday of every month, starting in March, from 7:00 to 9:00 UK time as well as from 16:00 to 18:00 UK time. 

Dates are: 2nd March*, 5th April*, 4th  May, 1st  June, 6th  July, 5th October.

Using the reply form below, please let us know whether you would like to sent a zoom invitation to Forum, even if you can’t always attend. Participation is free and of course the group may be different each time.

*The March Forum will take place face-to-face at the Symposium. The April session will take place on Wednesday instead of Thursday.
