The Changing Self: Identity in Dialogue

In this interactive workshop, we’ll explore how our identities shape the way we see the world, make decisions and understand one another. Through playful exercises, unexpected roles and collaborative challenges, we’ll experiment with what happens when different perspectives meet — and when they don’t quite fit. **You might think you know what you think. But change your perspective, step into someone else’s shoes, or find yourself in an unexpectedly absurd conversation, and things can get interesting.** You might find yourself defending a position you’d never normally take, or discovering that two seemingly incompatible viewpoints can create something neither could have arrived at alone. The aim isn’t to agree, get it right or simply understand the other person. It’s to stay curious about what happens between us — and discover how our perspectives can open up new possibilities when we meet. We see creativity as a potential within everyone, not something mysterious or rare. You don't need to think of yourself as "creative" to find it — it's already there, waiting to be nurtured, if we only find the right conditions for it to grow. **Bring your curiosity, leave your sensible shoes and your judgement at the door. Meet interesting people. Have some fun. Leave with techniques to disrupt the predictable.**

PREPARE & PAINT

**Bookable via our website ➡️** [https://www.thegoodlifecentre.co.uk/prepare-paint/](https://www.thegoodlifecentre.co.uk/prepare-paint/) ⋆⋆⋆ Learn to decorate in one day, 10am – 5pm. All set to decorate one room… or perhaps your entire home? Brush up your decorating techniques by messing up our workshop, instead of your living room! Painting a room is a great way to transform your home interior, without it costing the earth. But it can be a daunting task and everyone wants to have that professional-looking finish. What’s the secret to decorating success? Preparation and practice. Our Prepare & Paint workshop is a very practical class. From clearing the space to cleaning up brushes, we will take you methodically through the whole process. We will guide you through the importance and process of preparation: How to fill gaps and blemishes to make the surfaces smooth and ready for paint. You will practice using different tools and materials, experiment with different qualities of brushes, and finally learn how to apply paint to where you want and not all over yourself. In the morning, each student will have a panel of ‘wall’ and woodwork to work on. You will learn how to select the correct tools and materials and prepare a room for painting, from cleaning the paintwork to filling small and large holes in the walls and woodwork. Learn what materials to use and how to apply the filler and how to sand the surfaces in preparation for painting. We will even show you how to prepare areas that have been damaged by water stains, flaky plaster, and lost areas of wood. In the afternoon, you will learn how to select the correct paint and judge the correct situation to use primer and undercoat and how to paint ceilings, walls, and woodwork. Get to grips with how to paint edge lines that are crisp and sharp. Delight in painting without drips or masking tape and learn how to select and care for a paintbrush. We will even show you how to clean a brush and a roller so that they will give you years of service. Brush up your decorating techniques by practising under the guidance of an experienced decorator, who can answer your decorating problems as well, so bring photos of the snags in your home and take away lots of confidence to tackle the tasks at hand. All personal protection, tools, and materials are included. Suitable for absolute beginners. Enjoyable for everyone. This workshop takes place over one day.
