Heart & Soul - Inner Transition with Sophy Banks

A special guest from England, and one of the founders of the first Heart and Soul or Inner Transition groups as part of Transition Town Totness, Sophy Banks will be presenting at the Living Centre (just south of London) at 7pm on Monday, June 17th. The cost to participate is $15. 

This is a great opportunity, especially if you can't make Sophy's two day workshop in Guelph on June 19 and 20th, which if you can make it - do it.

Her talk will be about Inner Transition - why it's a key piece of the puzzle, how it links what happens inside us, or in our groups or relationships with the patterns of the bigger systems.

There will be time for interactive sessions - with lots of times for questions and shared discussion.

Sophy Banks 

In 2006 as Transition Town Totnes was coming into being Sophy co-founded the “Heart and Soul” group, addressing the psychological, spiritual and consciousness aspects of Transition. As the Totnes project grew she was involved in many areas of developing and running the organization. In 2007 she and Naresh set up Transition Training and started to offer the two day “Introduction to Transition”. A year later they took this workshop around the world travelling in 6 countries across 3 continents and visiting many Transition and other community projects along the way. Sophy’s current interest is in supporting, networking and resourcing Inner Transition groups around the movement.

Originally trained in science and engineering, Sophy worked in London for over 20 years as a computer trainer and systems consultant mainly in the voluntary sector. She retrained in inner work – psychotherapy, healing and family constellations – and set up a private practice as a therapist. In 2005 she realized she was too old to carry on slide tackling on the muddy football pitches of Hackney Marshes and moved to Devon, where she now roams the lanes, beaches and moors on foot or bike as often as Transition and the vegetable patch allow.
