'A Glastonbury Experience' - Living & Learning through a Process of Transformation

12th January 2010

A Workshop for 2010

Many people are ‘called’ to Glastonbury. Some feel that they know why they have come here whilst others have little idea. Some might stay for a few days, whilst others settle in Glastonbury. Many of those who stay, find themselves subjected to bouts of painful emotional, physical and spiritual stress - a phenomenon, which is sometimes called their ‘Glastonbury Experience’. This is a period of trial, at times testing people to the limit.

The aim of this workshop is to help us work together to gain a better understanding of the process known as 'A Glastonbury Experience' and from this, gain a clearer idea of the real purpose of our personal lives in Glastonbury and the work that we are being called upon to do here.

Friday 26th March, 7pm - 9pm
Saturday 27th March, 10am - 5pm
Sunday 28th March, 10am - 4pm

Venue: The Miracles Room, Glastonbury Experience Courtyard, 2 - 4 High Street, Glastonbury

Facilitated by:

Morgana West with Barry Taylor, Pauline Ross, Felicity Dalton and Alison Sutton

Cost: £85.00

A Pilgrimage to Bride's Mound

22nd October 2009

It was third time lucky for the volunteers' trip to Bride’s Mound! Heavy rain in summer meant postponing twice but we finally made it in September & the weather was perfect.

A frequent question in the Centre is "How do I get to Bride’s Mound?" The trip was organised in order to enable volunteers who hadn’t yet made a visit, to explore the route and better advise our visitors. It also acted as a prelude and introduction to our new publication, A Pilgrimage to Bride’s Mound’.

The booklet, with maps and photographs takes us on a journey to the Mound via St Margaret’s Chapel, Chaingate Spout, Fisher’s Hill (Castle of the Fisher King), the Glastonbury Thorn, Wearyall Hill and Pomparles Bridge (Pons Perilis) and includes the history and legends of these important places in the Glastonbury story.

Sixteen volunteers attended and a great day was had by all. Morgana West, our Co-ordinator, introduced everyone to the myths and history of each stage on the journey.

Anthony J. Kennish, who met us at the mound, gave dowsing instructions and volunteers wandered happily over the fields in glorious sunshine in the hunt for Bride’s Well.

‘A Pilgrimage to Bride’s Mound’ is available from our online shopand the Centre. Price: £5.99
'A Glastonbury Experience'

Glastonbury Experience TranscriptsBack in February, the PRC organised an event where Michael Orchard, Liz Williams and Barry Taylor spoke about their experiences in Glastonbury. This was followed by a lively, general discussion.It was attended by some seventy people and was held to be a great success. Following on from the event, we received requests to produce transcripts of the talks.
These are now available from our online shop and in the Centre. Priced £3.50.
