Resources

 

The quality of ‘spiritual conversation’ depends very much upon the quality of the reflection that people undertake, whether that be during the meeting or in preparation beforehand. Whatever is presented to the group as stimulus for reflection, whether it is art, music, or the written word; should be of an open-ended nature that can act as a launching pad for the memory and imagination.

We are happy to provide advice and support regarding resources for spiritual conversation. We can also develop ‘tailored’ resource packs to stimulate conversation in your specific context. Just contact us to talk about your requirements…

We have recently launched our first resource-based development project for Christian Communities – read more about ‘ The Micah Conversation’

Over recent years we have compiled an On-line Resource Collection of over 1000 pieces of material, drawn from the Christian tradition and beyond. The resources have been chosen with spiritual conversation in mind, but they could be helpful in many other contexts and settings. The collection is organised into themes and sub-themes, and contains poetry, prose, images, music, prayers and sacred texts.

 

 

The format of the resources is as follows:-

  • Written pieces – appear as PDF documents that can be printed or downloaded. You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to access these files.
  • Images – appear as JPEG files that can printed or saved to your computer.
  • Music – tracks appear as MP3 files that can be downloaded onto your computer or copied to CD.
  •  

    Participants in our Facilitators Training Course have unlimited access to the resources for the duration of their training.

    A subscription to ‘Breathing Spaces Resource Collection’ can be purchased for a charge of £15 per year. This will give you unlimited access to the On-line Resource Collection and you will also receive regular email updates from Breathing Spaces.
