The convivium is rest from labours, release from cares and nourishment of genius;
it is the demonstration of love and splendour, the food of good will, the seasoning of friendship, the leavening of grace and the solace of life... Everything should be seasoned with the salt of genius and illumined by the rays of mind and manners.

15th century Italian philosopher and academic Marsilio Ficino

Thwarting the Inner Critic is a two-day workshop for coaches whose purpose is to detect, discern and find liberty from our inner critic’s hold on us so that we are free to be whole, resourceful, alive, courageous and imaginative (April 18-19 2012, Ottawa).
