Author, coach, workshop facilitator, and ex-director of ‘Alternatives’, Steve Nobel says: “We live in highly volatile times. The planet is going through a powerful transition period and we are being called to wake up. Only a shift in consciousness offers any real and lasting solution to the global challenges ahead. Planetary and personal transitions are interlinked. The more we awake and shift our consciousness up the vibrational scale, the easier it is for the planet to transition successfully, and vice-versa. Transition is more than the word ‘change’ can ever describe. A change is when the outer geography of our life shifts. A transition is where the inner geography of our psychology also moves. Here the journey is as important as the destination, for along the way we can awaken a new sense of belonging, capability and direction. Personal transition is a form of heroic journey for it needs courage and a willingness to surrender to life’s great mystery.”
The Glastonbury Symposium is Britain’s best-established ‘alternative’ conference, an annual event of top international speakers which explores ‘Truth, Mysteries and New Frontiers’. Held since 1991 in historic Glastonbury, the Symposium is a unique opportunity to hear a wide range of topics in an open-minded and magical atmosphere.
