Thursday Talk - Your Intuitive Values - The word intuition conjures up different meanings for each of us. It can be described as an inner knowing, a sense of 'what's right, a feel for what is needed' beyond the immediately visible circumstances. Exploring our own intuitive values can give us more confidence to make decisions more easily and accurately. The more we understand and harness this natural resource of wisdom and skill within us, the more we can use it alongside intellectual knowledge and analysis to enrich our own lives and the lives of others.

Facilitator: Cimone-Louise Fung is a workshop facilitator that celebrates self-love and self-awareness, speaks regularly at Mind, Body & Spirit and writes columns for Insight Magazine.

An evening where you can bring any spiritual question that are on your mind and put them to our diverse panel.
