‘The Joy that Never Left: How to Stay Positive in Challenging Times’ - Stephan Hein & Rev Adam Slate

In today’s often chaotic world, hands-on practices from different healing traditions — speaking to body, mind and soul — offer us an invitation to reconnect with the inspiration, joy and resilience that flow from the inner depth of human resourcefulness and strength. Holistic Health Practitioner Stephan Hein introduces his therapeutic method of creative consciousness to access transformational self-healing, creative self-mastery, and the healing of community.

Attend on-site or on Zoom. Visit https://www.new-unity.org for more information, directions to the Meeting House, and for the Zoom link (there is a short registration process).

New event! Revolutionary Movements panel - 24th May, 1pm

Join us to explore what revolutionary movements have in common as three panelists from New Unity and the UK Unitarians discuss their experiences in Central America, Africa, and Europe. A Q&A will follow.

Helen Yuill, a New Unity member, has lived in Nicaragua and worked for the Nicaragua Solidarity Campaign Action Group. Rev Jim Corrigall, former London district minister and retired journalist, was born and raised in South Africa, where he was active in campaigns against apartheid until coming to the UK in 1974. Peter Turner, a New Unity congregant, was in France in 1968 and saw firsthand the widespread protests, strikes, and civil unrest that shook that country.
