Developing in the Art of Deep Talk / OutoftheBox 10th September 2023

This course takes place in Sheffield on 10th September 2023, and is for people who are attending the Deep Talk conference in Sheffield 8-9 September. OutoftheBox is a type of Deep Talk.
For more information please go to www.outoftheboxstories.org

It will be co-lead by the creator of Deep Talk, Tuula Valkonen, and the co-founder of OutoftheBox Kathryn Lord

We will be playfully, creatively relaxing into stories together.  The learning model is action-reflection with time to experience the approach, to reflect on the experiences and to practise the art of OutoftheBox. The OutoftheBox approach will also be modelled in the training process with the facilitators drawing out the wisdom of the group and enabling peer learning.

The training will have the feel of a retreat, as we share stories together and have time for a shared meal and coffee breaks.

Who is the training for?
OutoftheBox is an approach that can be used by those working with children, adults and intergenerational groups in schools, hospitals, churches, families, care homes, prisons or in the community. It is a useful approach for those involved in mentoring, chaplaincy, therapy, counselling and spiritual accompaniment. It is also used by those working to improve the working culture of secular and faith organisations.

This one day course assumes that the participants will have experienced Deep Talk during the Deep Talk conference that precedes the course.

Is there anything we can do to ensure that the course is accessible for you?
Terms and conditions. I understand that my place on the course will only be confirmed once full payment has been received. I understand that if the course facilitators need to cancel the training I will be informed as soon as possible and will receive a  full refund - but travel expenses cannot be reimbursed (You may wish to take out insurance to cover this possible loss).  I understand that if I wish to cancel more than 4 weeks before the training then I will receive a full refund, less £25 for admin costs. If I cancel less than 4 weeks before the start date then I will not receive a refund. However my place is transferable and I can arrange for someone else to take my place. *
I would like to talk with Kathryn to ensure that the course will meet my needs. *
