Tools for the Journey

Tools for the journey is a series of inspiring workshops over 3 full days where participants learn a range of NLP–derived tools, taught within the context of mindful awareness, that will enable them to leave with strategies to respond resourcefully to life situations ranging from the humdrum to the complex.

You will receive information, watch demonstrations, gain practical experience, discuss results, fine–tune processes and leave with a range of practical tools designed to enable you to live your life more consciously and delightfully. Participants have used this course to enable them to practise their spirituality even more easily and effectively, thus contributing to the overall well–being of our world.

£300. This includes a comprehensive course booklet.

How long is each day?

We begin at 9.30am and finish around 4.30pm.

Does it include any follow–up sessions?

Can I bring lunch with me?

Yes! Do bring lunch. Hot drinks are included and you are free to bring anything else to nibble…

Journey with Jools

These courses run once a month in Devoran and are an opportunity for people to celebrate, consolidate and learn something new. They are designed for people who have already done a 3 day course with me; if you would like to join in and haven’t yet worked with me, give me a ring or email to discuss whether this is suitable for you. Places are limited, so booking and paying in advance is essential. The course last for 3 hours betwen 10am and 1pm and costs £20. A drink is included.

Breathing Space for Busy People

This innovative course is run with Megan Selby, a voice work practitioner. For either one or two days, it creates an opportunity for participants from all walks of life to come together in a safe, nurturing environment to be truly themselves, letting go into a deeper stillness within and making room to experience more effective ways of being in contexts both personal and professional. Using a combination of voice exploration, chanting, mindfulness and NLP participants will find a breathing space within and learn how to maintain a breathing space when they leave. No prior experience of voice work is required.
