Echoes in the MIND
A 16 week distance education course for adult learners
2007 Intakes - February and July.

This course is not an academic study, rather a guided journey of exploration and transformation through the art of story.

We take a joyful spiralling journey through the echoes in the mind to make a story, particularly for young children, to heal and instruct. We will start through the eyes of a beginner.

Melinda will lead you to build stories through familiar sensations, from your time and place , both real and imaginary, through thought, inner dialogue, wisdom , intuition and compassion into the subject matter.

Learners are encouraged with a relaxed and friendly attitude
to attempt reflective writing exercises , writing verse or poetry and small stories . Many stories for children are used as example in the course thereby making the task of writing more accessible.

The realm of daydreams is fertile soil for story-making.
All souls long for that dream – the one where a story blossoms from the pure life of the imagination itself. Be in the moment.

Echoes in the Mind is a therapeutic story making and story telling correspondence course for adult learners.

Once upon a time we innately told therapeutic and healing stories. They hold magical metaphors which hold great meaning in our minds – just like an echo. Such stories have faded.

Parents, teachers, carers or anyone working in holistic, health and family therapies wishing to have impact on the wellbeing of their children or clients can access therapeutic storytelling.

16 week course – 1 lesson per week + feedback (dialogue) every 4 weeks

Testimonials

"I am finding it so therapeutic and easy to get through. It's really fitted in with new things that I'm discovering and developing in my life. I've also been working on improving the relationship with my daughter so this is going to be a big boost. It's inspired a lot of other ideas already too. Exploring the world through story is really exciting to me because I'm always looking for ways I can teach my daughter about the world and how to act and relate to it."
Terry Smith - Nov 2005

"I just want to thank you for your feedback, i think it was meant to come to me tonight and not last night. i think you've done a wonderful job in designing the course. each lesson building on the next so that a finished story is definately possible. i love seeing a process come to fruition. thank you for leading me down a path i am sure i must follow. to say that u feel i have much to teach others is very comforting, i always thought so to, i just wasn't sure how. thanks again"


“This course is just what I was searching for. To really connect with my three year old and ease his fear of the dark through a story I created was an amazing experience.” F. Roachford

“Even as an adult, I love to hear a story – its subliminal healing powers have enabled me to live with less anger. I could not have done it without starting this course.” B. Jacks
