Join us for a Conversation in the Paddock.

Sponsored by Dungog Shire Community Centre, we are running three FREE events for the Women of the Dungog Shire.

These Conversations are an opportunity to come together in the relaxing presence of the horses to share you stories is resilience and struggle over the last few years of drought, fires, floods, mice and the Covid Pandemic. Through sharing our stories we support each other.

Spaces are limited in order to give everyone a chance to talk.

We will be gathering in the presence of the horses with opportunity to meet them more closely, but there is no riding involved an you are not required to go close to them if you do not want to.

If you could go back in time and change one decision or one action, what would it be?

Think about it for a minute – of all the choices you have made over your life, which one do you think would have impacted you the most?

Bask for a moment, in all the positive things that would have flowed from making that different choice.

Now turn your attention to all those equally positive things that would not have happened.

You are not even touching on the bad things that also might have happened as a result of that change.

So, I have a confession.

I have been watching a TV series about two groups of people who have been hopping backwards and forwards through time, one group trying to change history and the other trying to preserve it – and then all the consequences in the present because of their tinkering.

Life isn’t science fiction though. No matter how you might want to, you cannot change the past – but even if you could, it would just create an alternate past. If you don’t like where you are still, what do you do? Go back and change something else?

What a relief that you cannot do that! The past is past.
Yet why do you get so distracted by it, instead of being wholly present? Whilst you can learn from the past, you can only ever be in the present.

Take some time to just sit, preferably somewhere outside where you can feel the elements, hear the bird sounds, and just be.
Notice what is around you, notice what you are curious about that is present with you.

Sense into your body, noticing, but not trying to change your breath.

Just be.
