‘The greatest potential for growth and self-realisation
exists in the second half of life.’  Jung
 
The second half of life can now be a period of real significance and enrichment. It may be the first opportunity to discover true authenticity, yet it can also be a time of stress and anxiety.

A few days standing back from life and sharing with other women in a similar situation through discussion, reflection and creativity can help to identify priorities and discover a new richness in our personal lives and relationships as well as considering our role in society.

We welcome contributions from a wide variety of cultures. The majority of women are in their fifties and sixties, but many are older or younger than this which adds to the enrichment.

These long weekends are a gentle time of affirmation, replenishment, celebration and exploration  in a small and friendly group. Each session is completely self-contained.

There are two weekends being held at the Grange this year. Each session is completely self-contained.  Anyone wishing to explore further is welcome to come to a Further Exploration in a later year.
