Come help the stories continue.__________________________On the Power of StoryThe power of story is, at its root, the power of truth, and truth has a way of ringing through whatever container it is poured into. Whether the words come forward as a poem, a monologue, a fairy tale, or a memory shared around a fire, what changes and transforms the world is not the form but the truth vibrating inside it. A story sings when it has been fully lived, fully felt, and integrated into the body and senses of the one telling it. This is not a metaphor. It is a practice of returning to sensation, to breath, to felt connection with the earth beneath us, so that when we speak, something real moves through the words.Stories are also like accordions. They can be drawn out into their full expanse or pressed down to their essential breath, and in either direction, beautiful music is possible. Knowing the truth of a story is only the first art. The second is attunement: reading the audience, the space, the time available, and learning to shape the telling accordingly. This is the practice of council: speaking to the heart of the matter with leanness of speech, editing in real time not from anxiety but from presence. It is a discipline. And like all disciplines, it becomes a gift.Purpose &amp; IntentEvery life contains suffering that was never asked for and wisdom that was hard-won. The late Robert Bly reminded us that our greatest gifts often lie right next to our wounds, and we all carry a deep longing to feed our families, communities, and culture with the experience we have gathered. This workshop is built around that longing: the alchemical work of moving from wound to gift, and then shaping that gift into story that can touch the hearts and minds of those who were not there, carried forward for seven generations and beyond.Participants will leave with greater clarity about which stories from their lives are asking to be told, how to shape those stories so that their message and wisdom can be gifted to the listener, and what it feels like to be heard with genuine reverence.Agenda🕑: 10:00 AMMorning: The VesselInfo: We open in circle with arrival, grounding, and a dedication to the ancestors and descendants who make this work meaningful. The morning’s teaching centers on story as a vessel of transmission: what it means to carry memory across time, how the same event can be told a hundred ways, and why the difference between what happened and what it means is where the real craft lives.
We will also sit with the question of alchemy itself: what it actually takes to move from wound to wisdom, and why that movement is neither linear nor complete before a story can be worth telling.Midday: The PracticeInfo: Participants hear a short traditional or fairy tale and practice retelling it in small groups, working on essence, compression, and the quality of presence that makes a story land. This is playful and low-stakes, a warmup for the afternoon’s deeper work.Afternoon: The GiftInfo: Guided by the prompt “What is a story from your life that you would want remembered for seven generations?” participants shape and share a personal story in groups of three. Listeners practice mirroring back the gold: the wisdom, the turn, the moment where something hard became something true.
Painful stories are welcomed here with full care. This workshop holds that stories which have known real darkness are often the ones with the most light to offer, when they are shaped with craft and offered with intention.Closing: The CircleInfo: The day closes in a communal, ceilidh-style story circle with shared telling, gratitude, and blessing. We leave not as individuals who attended a workshop but as a council that has done something together.
