The Circle For Change Initiative and Manitoulin Eco Park are pleased to announce our ‘Good Relations Essentials’ Training for 2024. These trainings are for anyone who desires a deeper connection to themselves, others, and all our relations. You have been invited to this training because of your relationship to the Park and/or personal relationship with someone close to the Park. We consider the trainings ‘Essential’ for everyone and well worth the time and effort to attend. Participation is especially important if you wish to work, volunteer, run a program, project, or supervise folks at the Park. This will be a six week (Sundays) virtual program starting Sunday March10 at 1pm EST. We will cover three main topics: * Nature Connection * Peacemaking * Three Circles as outlined by the Four Worlds International Institute. What is covered? Our first session will be the Park’s Board of Directors sharing with us their vision of the Park and the course overview. Shore’s ‘Origin Story’ recording for the Park and Community will be sent out beforehand. We would ask that you bring your intentions for the training to share as well. Each week there will be a keynote, with the majority of the 2 hours spent in breakout rooms of 3-4 people. We will all return to the main group for sharing. The keynote, story, and ending harvest will be recorded for later review. We strongly encourage folks to do the reading, think and talk about the topic before each session. These teachings are full of life lessons that sink in over time and with repeated exposure and practice.
