Castles of the Mind
Seahouses, Northumberland
Friday 14th – Sunday 16th September 2018
Do we have ‘castles of the mind’?
Traditionally, ancient castles were build where there was trouble… Do we have the equivalent in our minds and emotions? Have we, over the course of our lives, built up strong fortifications with which to repel those intrusions which, as children, we considered frightening?
Our ‘walk and talk’ events are friendly and informal. We ask those attending to bring one or two readings from their favourite books, poems, or other sources of inspiration. We listen and talk… and share. If someone is ready to enter their personal borderlands, we hold their hand and walk with them.
The cost per attendee is £50.00. This is an administrative cost, only. All personal costs and bookings, such as hotels and meals, are the responsibility of those attending. Meals are generally shared in a local pub, and the cost divided between those partaking.

This looks amazing, Sue. I’ve always loved castles, ever since I was a young child. You find some wonderful places 🙂 x

Me too, Esther. Castles are indeed a place where dreams can be brought to life in many different costumes as it were. Castles are so much more than fortresses. They are a form of art that dances through our imagination and provides a place from which to fly. They are part birth, death, and rebirth, part love and part hate, and part strong foundation that lives on through the ages. Everything that can be considered a part of humankind can be found within the amazing world of castles.

It intrigues me too, Sue. I have met so many nice people on this blog and the related ones – people who are making a difference, or working to make a difference in this world. Wish I could come to these events, but I am glad you post about them before and afterward. Someday. We don’t know what the future holds. What is happening is that I read one post, and then there are several more at the bottom, so I go and read those too, and those have more. It is absolutely addictive!!!

That’s nice to read, Anne. Just back from the workshop and a few days holiday, so there will be plenty to read when I catch my breath 🙂
