Welcome! Autumn is Coming!

 

Thank you for visiting. I'm Brian, and I hope to open the kind of space in which you connect more soulfully and creatively with what matters most. My work flows from my contemplative Christian spirituality.

I'm inspired by the words of Cynthia Bourgeault  to try to cultivate a 'deeply attuned mystical heart, anchored in a fierce, conscious presence' through all the seasons. It's always work in progress ... but I know it's better when we do it together! So please do join me for any series or events throughout the year!

Sept to October dates

On Saturday Sept 20 I’m leading an autumn-themed quiet day at the Royal Society of St Katharine. More details here.

 

I’m a contributor this year to RFSK’s on-line ‘National Retreat Week’, which runs from Sept 22-27. There’ll be a rich compendium of resources on offer - more details from RFSK here.

I’m presenting Thought for the Day on Sat Sept 27 on BBC Radio 4. 

 

I’m glad to say I’m running my own autumn mini email series from Sept 29 to Oct 3: 'Autumn 25: the Fall and Rise' I’ll announce further news of how to sign up soon!

 

In person, from October 6-10, I’m in south Devon to lead an autumn themed week at the lovely Sheldon Retreat Centre titled ‘Real and Colourful, Fruitful and Whole’. It’ll be similar in content to the autumnal week I led at Lee Abbey last October, but it’ll be a silent retreat this time. Details here

 

And on Oct 23 I’m back in Riddlesworth, Norfolk, for a labyrinth retreat day called 'Dynamic Rest and Holy Zest!'. Final details tbc, but save the date if you’re in the area and check back here in the next few weeks!
