Summary
Sometimes, when people come to me with worries and problems, I suggest that they may need to find somewhere or something which will both comfort and inspire them, as part of the therapy which leads to wholeness and healing.
For some that is water - the sea-shore, a river, a lake or a stream. For others this may be a mountain, a ruin or a favourite church or building.
However, the grandeur of nature provides comfort for some - with a sunset, a misty morning, a beautiful view, all providing a feeling of joy, calm and peace.
The use of 'space' and 'place' allows us to be transported, lifted from the familiar and often traumatic, to an other worldly experience.
We have set out five experiences of Holy Spaces and five experiences of Holy Places. These have been sources of inspiration and renewal, for me and for others. Please, enjoy the experience and share also your special 'spaces and places' with us.
