Shadow Work

John from the men’s shed and Diarmaid have another shadow work workshop coming up soon here at ACC on Saturday the 24th of October.

See the details below for anyone interested in trying shadow work!

An Introduction to Shadow Work

Saturday 24th October
The Alphington Community Centre

Free Event

10.00am -1.00pm

Facilitators:

Diarmaid Fitzpatrick: Certified Shadow Work Group Facilitator 

John Byrne:  Certified Core Clearing Breath Work Practitioner

Dear Friends

You Can’t Step into the Same River Twice

The river has changed.
And so have you.

Our first Introduction to Shadow Work  in September was an opportunity to explore the different parts of ourselves that influence how we think, feel and respond to life.

But Shadow Work has many layers.

The Sovereign, Lover, Warrior and Magician are more than four boxes. Each has different expressions and strengths — and each can become inflated or deflated when we lose connection with ourselves.

This free workshop offers a chance to revisit some familiar territory and perhaps see it differently.

If you came to the first workshop, come back with fresh eyes.
If you didn’t, you’re very welcome.

You might discover something about your Inner Critic, Risk Manager, Inflated or Deflated Self — or something entirely unexpected.

No previous experience needed. Just bring your curiosity.

Because when we return to the river, we never quite enter as the same person.

To Book your place email:  Diarmaid Fitzpatrick  d.fitzpatrick@awarenessbd.com or  John Byrne  coachinglifeworks@gmail.com

We look forward to welcoming you

best wishes

Diarmaid and John

Footy tipping winners

Congratulations Corrado (Adopted Crupi) for winning our footy tipping competition this year, and also a big congratulations to Thomas (Soarin’) for being our runner up.

Thanks Corrin, for making our new perpetual trophies. We had a special ceremony at community lunch on Friday with Alex (who has come along each week to update the ladder on the wall) awarding the trophies.

Fabulous!

This week...

Hi everyone,

Thanks to those who came to our AGM last Monday. It’s been a great year and we loved celebrating it with our ACC community - lovely to have a mix of committee and volunteers along for dinner etc. I am in Timor-Leste this week with Friends of Baucau, but India will be here Monday, Tahlia on Tuesday, Clare on Wednesday … and the rest of the week will be pretty normal …

Come along to our Op-Shop tour this Thursday from 10am-2pm! Lee and Tahlia will be heading up to High Street in Northcote for a bit of bargain hunting. Bookings can be made online here.

School holidays are coming up … but we have some free events before then - namely, our morning tea and conversation with Leigh Mankey from Dementia Australia, and John Byrne’s Shadow Work program. See the posts below for details. And then we have our two week break before term 4 and we are so glad to see people already booked into some of our term-based programs such as CRUNCH and Cook By The Book.

See you next week!

Cheers, Leanne

Does your doggy need a walk?

Does your fur baby need a walk? If you own a dog in the Alphington area, are over 65, and for some reason (health etc.) can’t walk it as much as you’d like … or if you know someone in this boat, check out this program below!

Sarah at Council has contacted us because she has volunteer walkers already lined up, ready to make connections and take a dog for a walk regularly in Alphington.

Just contact the positive aging officer at Council … details in the flyer.

What a super neighbourly community service hey? Thanks Yarra Council for contacting us … and organising this terrific program.
