STORYTELLING INTENSIVE WORKSHOP
WITH CHRISTINA BALDWIN AND ANN LINNEA
Melbourne, Australia
July 21, 2011
People have been practicing the skill of story for tens of thousands of years in every language ever spoken and every society ever developed. Story is the transmitter of wisdom, the carrier for ninety percent of everything we know. Story will set the vision in place for where we are going: we proceed from the story into the action. Want to change yourself? Your organization? The world? Start with those stories... In a professional arena crowded with tools and theories, the return to story shines in its clarity and simplicity.
The Storytelling Intensive Workshop will be delivered by Christina Baldwin and Ann Linnea, founders of PeerSpirit and accomplished authors. You will experience the power of story to significantly influence the quality of your personal life and your engagement with the important organisations - both professional and community based - to which you belong.

REFRAMING LIFE EVENTS INTO STORIES OF EMPOWERMENT
A Teleclass with Christina Baldwin offered by The Therapeutic Writing Institute
June 27 - July 22, 2011
Life happens: and then out of what happened, we make the story we live with. The more significant an event, the more potent the story that emerges. Over time, people tend to meld the event and the story: we assume the story is the event, an unchangeable fact of our existence. These stories become the (often unconscious) narrative frame inside which we live our lives as victims or victors, as outsiders or members of our communities, etc. But—we can remain honest about our experiences and write new and empowering stories for how we live with what has happened to us. That is the intent of this class.
Join Christina and a thriving, vibrant global community for unsurpassed online learning.
