What we’re about

Exploring and Sharing is for anyone who enjoys learning and growing through sharing new experiences with others.

I create monthly events to explore together a unique aspect of the Newcastle city, it’s harbour or the surrounding natural environment. I love bringing people together of all ages and interests for walks and tours where dedicated community guides share their knowledge and enthusiasm for special heritage, cultural and natural places.

I am part of the Avatar®Oceania network and together we facilitate the Avatar course which is techniques for exploring consciousness.

Sat, Nov 23, 2024, 3:45 PM AEDTIn-person Thoughtstorm® Session: Newcastle
Perkins Street THE HILL Newcastle, The Hill
Join me to Thoughtstorm the topic: Effectiveness

How did Thoughtstorm come about?
Thoughtstorm is a technique developed from a seed of speculation:
Are there more effective (rational, cooperative, compassionate) ways of thinking? Methods whose long-term consequences will not lead to oblivion. This is the genesis of Thoughtstorm.

Insights
Would you like to discover another way of looking at things? Would you like to be inspired and develop your consciousness? Would you like to have fun?
Then we'd love to see you there! New insights guaranteed!

What is it?
What is experienced is a forgotten sensory ability-mind-linking. Creative energies explode and there's a marriage of creativity and compassion. The direction moves from a narrow range of possibility into discovering corecepts where individual minds merge into a much more powerful cooperative awareness and a deeper, more compassionate comprehension of reality.

Because this process taps into abilities already present in the human mind and into aggregates of consciousness straining to express themselves, very little practice is required.

Sun, Dec 1, 2024, 1:30 PM AEDTExploring Fort Scratchley: Newcastle
Fort Scratchly, Newcastle
Join me to explore the rich history of Fort Scratchley built on the headland at Newcastle East in 1882 to defend Newcastle against a possible Russian attack. Enjoy the stunning 360 degree views to Nobbys lighthouse, the beaches, estuary and the city. We’ll meet one of the Historical Society volunteers at the gate for maps and guidance on the places to be discovered, including the Parade and Ceremony Grounds, galleries and museum collections, and the historic gun emplacements.

Bring along something for a picnic afternoon tea or the shop has ice creams and drinks. If it’s wet weather we’ll have afternoon tea on the veranda of the historic barracks with a birds eye view of shipping in the harbour.
This is a family friendly event.

Agenda
I’ll meet you outside the main gate at 1.30pm.
Entry is free. A donation to the Historical Society would be welcome.

We won’t be doing the Tunnel Tour but if you’d like to explore underground you can visit the shop to make a booking for a time that suits you.
