We were really well looked after Friday night after the first course finished, invited to a BQ by social work students from Curtin University. They have developed a real fondness for Ron after receiving lectures from him last year.
Week 2 in Perth, the weather has changed, its, grey, cloudy & intermittently wet, could be Scotland, oh well we are working so not so important. The 2nd course has gone well, lots of discussion & debate on the first 2 days, but by the third day people were seeing & feeling recovery, the who am I’s had worked their magic yet again. The recovery process is alive and well, watching it run its course over and over has given me a deep sense of what is important in creating mental well being.
I love running this course with Ron, I see it produce profound change and recognition in people. People are amazing, the lives they have led their resilience and will to keep going through adversity, I feel humbled and in awe at how simply listening to their stories can produce such healing, growth and connection.
