Love & Presence in Relationships

JOIN: Helen English and Andy Portman
Fri 4 Jul 2025 - Sun 6 Jul 2025
Time: Friday 7.00pm to Sunday 4.30 pm
Come solo or with a partner. Join us for a transformational weekend workshop. Precious space for diving deep into love, connection and conscious relating, with The Enneagram and Taoism as guide.

Looking for more? Find that spark! Enjoy more passion, curiosity and growth. Stay true to yourself and your essential nature, thriving in relationship.

This workshop is for anyone wanting more vitality and presence, authenticity and joie de vivre in their
relationships.
A shared inquiry into the nature of relationship: its science, mystery and magic.

 

Time for a wake-up call? Sometimes we realise we're sleep-walking through life. Lost in humdrum everyday routines, it's all too easy to switch off and tune out: from ourselves and those around us. It happens so gradually we barely notice - until it really matters - something needs to change!

 

Come solo or with a partner. Take time with us to:

 

  • Make space: within you and around you, for more love, compassion and better connection

  • Wake up more fully: to yourself, your patterns, your gifts, your essence, your core being and the true qualities of thoseclose to you

  • Open potential: bring awareness and consciousness, opening to new ways of being and relating

  • Get practical: explore what it takes - practical resources - to bring love and healing into everyday interactions

 

By fully immersing yourself, you'll leave better able to: 

​

  • Build a relationship that genuinely lifts your life experience

  • See, hear and appreciate one another, beyond assumption and projections

  • Notice and navigate repeated patterns, so you've more freedom and choice

  • Relate from your core presence, enjoying both independence and intimacy

 

Approach:

​

We’ll be a small group able to relax into the rich natural environment of Avalon Permaculture Gardens. We’ll explore where you are on your personal life/soul journey and your experience of relationships; past, present and future. What do you long for and aspire to?

​

Blending theory with circle-work, conversation and practical activity, meditation and movement. A powerful Enneagram mat offers the chance to embody the symbol’s creative movements and connections. There’s scope for participation, reflection, conversation, rest and some fun, along the way.

Helen says:

Andy and I met in early 2020, both widowed after long-term relationships. This February marks our 4thanniversary.  In this time we’ve shared the pandemic roller-coaster, cliff-path walks, kayaking and music, alongside so many rich conversations; often, a creative fusion of Andy’s deep understanding of relationship patterns lit up by Enneagram-borne insights.  We’ve also dipped a toe into the world of each other’s work. This webinar comes as a natural progression, the fruit of creative relationship, inquiry and conversation.
