Finding Love: relationship workshop, 4 May, Winchester

A one-day workshop in Winchester, Hampshire, presented by Hoffman UK and Matthew and Emma Pruen of The French Retreat (pictured).

About the course

Looking for love can be a vulnerable and testing experience. Expectations – family, social, and our own – can conspire to spin us into a vicious cycle of shame-beliefs, fears and repeating negative patterns. But it doesn’t have to be this way. By examining and challenging those patterns in a compassionate light, we can improve our understanding of why we make the choices we do, and break through to a future in tune with our heart’s truest desires.

• Are you beginning to think that there’s no-one out there that ‘gets you’?
• Do you find yourself falling in love or wasting time with the wrong people again and again?
• Do you sit online looking at profiles and wondering why you’re not finding your perfect match?
• Have you just come out of a long relationship and are nervous about finding someone new?
• Have you already given up hope that there is someone out there for you?

Matthew and Emma Pruen have drawn from over 20 combined years of Hoffman Process facilitating and relationship coaching (Matthew) and Family & Systemic Constellations work (Emma), as well as other wisdom traditions, to design this experiential workshop. The intention is to harness the alchemy of a group of kindred spirits, all willing to be vulnerable together, and a powerful mix of tools and practices, to support real breakthrough in each participant’s personal vision of loving relationship.
