Event Details

This event finished on 20 October 2018

Health Being Institute in association with the College of Medicine invite you to the first in a series of events exploring Harmony in Health.

The first explores: “Harmony & healthy life: from Ancient Greece to Modern Europe”

“It is through the principle of Harmony that human beings have health and well-being”.

Join us and be inspired by ancient wisdom and modern science to have a healthier, happier and more fulfilled life, to live as a harmonious human being.  Mythology, history, philosophy, medicine & spirituality are combined in this multidimensional workshop.

When: Saturday 22 September 2018, 11:00am–1:30 pm
Where: At the Health Being Institute in 8-9 Hop Gardens, Woolman Room, London WC2N 4EH.
Cost: £20 per person. TO PAY FOR REGULAR ADMISSION VIA EVENTBRITE CLICK HERE

The second explores: “Harmony in Living and Dying”.

By popular demand, this follows on from our first sell out workshop on ‘Conscious living – Conscious Dying’.  Discover through the prism of Harmony how human beings are part of the natural world and death is a natural and sacred event.

In July 2018 NHS England published guidance on behalf of the National Quality Board, on Learning from Deaths: Guidance for NHS Trusts on working with bereaved families and carers. A key theme throughout the guidance is the need for compassionate, clear and honest communication, which respects the views and feelings of family members. This will work if healthcare professionals are prepared to talk about death and are comfortable having the difficult conversations with patients and carers that are necessary at the end of life. Talking about the process of dying in plain language shows compassion and means everyone can make sense of the situation and is better prepared. Join us to find out more.

When: Saturday 20 October 2018, 10:00am – 4:00pm
Where: at the Health Being Institute in 8-9 Hop Gardens, Woolman Room, London WC2N 4EH
Cost: £50 per person.  TO PAY FOR REGULAR ADMISSION VIA EVENTBRITE, CLICK HERE.

Prof Graham Ward – Living with Invisibility

In this lecture Graham will explore the multiple ways in which we live simultaneously with the visible, or what we can perceive through our senses, and the invisible. The invisible pertains to any number of ordinary realms – the sensory, the operations of the mind, the phenomenal world, and the cosmological.

Gary Lachman – The Secret Teachers of the Western World

Running alongside the acccepted history of western consciousness there is another current which should have pride of place but which has been relegated to a shadowy, inferior position, somewhere underground. In the seventeenth century this other current – known variously as the western esoteric tradition, the western inner tradition, and the Hermetic tradition – fell victim to a coup d’etat enacted by one side of our brain against the other.

CONSCIOUS AGING

Conscious Ageing and the Wisdom of Elders

There is a big difference between simply becoming old and aging consciously – ageing with intent. This interactive day event will provide a space to reflect on what it means to become a conscious elder at a time when we can expect more years of what Mary Catherine Bateson calls ‘Adulthood 2’ characterised by ‘active wisdom’. We may well undergo turning points in our sense of identity, relationships and generativity or contribution. Elders have a great deal to offer, perhaps from a wider and wiser viewpoint; and, as Jung maintained, we need to acquire a spiritual outlook on life in order finally to be able to affirm our lives, our transformation in death and the love we have shared with significant others. We invite you to come and share your own insights.
