“There were no powerpoint presentations, no desks, no classroom with a teacher at the front; there was a circle, there were cushions and blankets, there was space and sometimes silence, and there was intimacy, and sharing and deep exploration and deep learning. Six trainees, dropping in with each other for two years, exceptionally well held with an authentic, strong, nurturing energy emanating from Marianne and her team, an energy that only ever wanted the best for each of us. Their profound awareness of the delicate depth of this work and their ability to pass this on to us with increasing levels of subtlety has been frequently awe inspiring.” Alasdair
