Welcome to the Talking Bowl

This is where I will be sharing musings, insights, inspiring stories and snippets of wisdom which captivate or interest me; and may be of interest you too. I will also let you know about upcoming workshops, events and courses that I have on offer.

The Talking Bowl is used as a way of communicating and sharing in Circle and in wise counsel.

Passed from women to woman, the Talking Bowl weaves its way around the Circle; each person having the opportunity to be fully expressed, to be truly heard; to listen as deeply and intently to each other as we wish to be listened to. Round in shape, sometimes full, sometimes empty, the Talking Bowl is a receptive vessel in which to pour our hearts and souls.

The concept of using a Talking Bowl in women’s circle was shared with me by Jane Hardwicke Collings. Jane was introduced to the Talking Bowl as a process, though a community of women in Colorado many years ago. It is now used over and again in woman’s circles.

In this way, I will share with you, from The Talking Bowl.
