The Membership of Life practice has it&rsq uo\;s origins in Narrative Therapy and invites us to consider our personal community. \;
\nUsing art and writing\, participants will be in vited to reflect on who they feel are important &lsquo\;members&rsquo\; of their life. \; Using metaphors\, such as a club\, a team\, or a garde n\, participants will be guided to explore membership in their lives. \; We will explore how important members are not always still with us\, an d might not even be human\, but may have a significant impact on how we un derstand ourselves and the world. \; The process will involve explora tion of themes such as hope\, choice\, accomplishment\, goals\, loss\, com munity\, and belonging.
