An Introduction to The Way of Council

Council is a simple, timeless way of coming together in circle - to speak and listen from the heart.

To put fixing and judgement down.
To allow presence, story, and the quiet healing of being truly seen and heard.

This one-day Online Webinar is an invitation into the first stage of Council, especially if you are new, curious, or longing for a more intentional way of being with others.

Saturday February 21st 2026
10am–5pm (online)
Cost - £75

A Council Poem

I bring the Way of Council to the world
because peace begins in how we meet.

In Council we remember
to listen with the whole heart,
to speak with the voice of truth,
to witness without judgement.

Here we make a place where stories
long silenced can be spoken,
where wounds can be tended,
where differences soften into respect.

In this way,
Council becomes a ground of justice:
a space where each voice matters,
where those harmed and those who harmed
may be seen as human again,
where conflict gives way to understanding.

In this way,
Council becomes a ground of peace:
youth finding their voice,
elders offering their wisdom,
communities remembering their wholeness,
activists renewing their courage,
and all of us listening again to the Earth.

I bring Council as a living practice
not to solve, not to fix,
but to create the conditions
where healing and reconciliation
become possible.

For justice without listening cannot last.
For peace without truth cannot hold.
Council is the place where
justice and peace learn to breathe together.

The Alexander Technique - Workshop in Machynlleth -

Dear friends, I hope you are well and okay. As some of you know, I’ve recently moved to the Machynlleth area. It’s been quite a wrench to leave North Wales, though I’ll still be returning to Bangor and Porthmadog once a month to see clients. The coming months will be a time of settling in and...
