*Deep Talk*
— is being used with adults and youth, often in groups, but also one-to-one; those trained in Deep Talk are using it in work and business settings as well as in education, church and therapeutic contexts. More info is available at
https://deep-talk.blog*Deep Talk method*
— takes a principles from spiritual accompaniment, story-telling, peer-to-peer dialogue and community building—along with methods from Montessori and Godly Play —and adapts these, using ancient stories, fables and other tales for a spiritual process suitable to secular and religious settings, to help groups work through issues or challenges, or consider their organisation’s vision or mission.
*Deep Talk development*
— began in Finland with Tuula Valkonen, but now this is developing in the UK, the Netherlands, South Africa, Namibia and Australia. Since 2016 several trainings in Deep Talk have taken place in Sheffield, Dublin and Sydney and this one, in London, is the latest. Itwill be led by Jeremy Clines, who has been a Deep Talk practitioner and trainer for four years. It will be for a group of up to eight people, so please book straight away if you are interested.
*Deep Talk sessions*
- we begin, by sitting in a circle; the showing of a story; and a time of wondering; but then everyone changes places and a dialogue game is played, arising from the story: this is when the group explores their work and life together. Then a celebration and chance to say farewell.
