Four Stories presentation
Stories of our future – blog post
Listen to a recording of this talk
In this talk Sophy looks at the four stories, at the psychological reasons why they’re all important, and the overarching process that links them all. Participants will be invited to explore and develop their own future story.
Sophy Banks helped to set up the first “Heart and Soul” group in Transition Town Totnes in 2006, and has been supporting the inner dimension of the Transition movement from its centre ever since. She co-founded Transition Training and has taught Transition to people in initiatives around the world. A psychotherapist, family constellator, engineer and ex-footballer, she is interested in systemic approaches to all things.

When that truth is remembered, the language of rights will fall silent, and what remains will be the only thing that ever mattered: the unbroken relationship among all that exists.
