⁠Artist, Steve Sedgwick⁠, has wondered at (and in!) natural water sources since childhood, and his unique work reflects his experiences of and responses to nature. Here, he speaks of the creative act beyond the thinking mind, feeling imagery and physical and emotional responses to artistic sources of inspiration, and how he transfers this to canvas. He helps us understand artistic expression beyond skills, technique and representation and helps us feel our way into what it might be like to create from intuition.

He's honest, down-to-earth, warm-hearted and generous. The creative act can be messy and frustrating at times. Nonetheless, he encourages us to, in our own way, 'just DO it'!

Steve's exquisite, expressive work can be seen at The Hive Gallery's exhibition - ⁠'FLOW - Stories of the Wetlands'⁠ until June 30, 2024, and again in a solo exhibition at The Hive in September 2024.

What does non-attachment mean? When we begin to understand this, there’s such a sense of surrender and freedom. It’s not about abstinence, austerity, or ascetism. It’s not about owning or not owning ‘stuff’, rather, it’s about ‘stuff’ not owning us! What does this mean? Listen for more of Bec’s wisdom.

Top-down and bottom up processing. We all do both, but when we process predominantly in one of the two ways, things can get tricky. Gaining an understanding of this allows us to become more objective about our experience, less likely to ‘make up’ stories, and helps us cultivate an ability to find equipoise. Sound good?

Introception. Have you ever heard of it? I hadn’t. It’s the most important indicator for our emotional intelligence and it’s a skill and awareness we can develop. It helped one of Bec’s yoga students prevent a panic attack. Bec helps us understand what it is and how we can refine it. It’s worth it for you and everyone around you!

Mine’s called Fluffy. Bec’s is called Dalilah. That’s the egos I’m referring to! Here Bec Duffield and I delve into what the ego is, how it ticks and why it’s not an enemy. Understanding this can help us avoid a whole lot of emotional and spiritual pain in our lives! It’s worth consideration.

Why on earth are there so many gods in Hindu mythology? There’s an excellent reason, and Bec guides us to an understanding of how the gods represent aspects of being human. They help us to bring clarity to what might otherwise be difficult to conceptualise. Explore here, with Bec, the richness the Hindu gods offer us in developing our self-understanding.

Programme Manager at a major bank, Mary Black, knew she ‘should’ be happier. She thought “this can’t be ‘it’”. And she was right.

This is an honest, open, frank conversation with a highly intelligent, successful woman, about the struggles so many of us face. This is a unifying conversation. Don’t miss it!

This is her personal story of the transformation of her leadership ability following trauma resolution.
