TheStoryChapel
A luminous space for play, creativity and transformation utilising vibrant, arts-centred processes to help restore our sense of belonging, joy, resilience and meaning in our lives.
We are
~ a collaborative hub of facilitators who can help people—whether young or old, able and capable or at a challenging point in their lives– play, shuffle, reorder, have fun, create, shimmy, re-word their stories and be heard.
We do this
~ in person via
- workshops and drop-ins; transformative processes that help reshape our sense of valued presence and agency in our lives
~ online via developing
- a major podcast program, sharing stories of courage, crisis points, joy-filled experience and other learnings
- a YouTube channel, giving access to story-transforming games and practices
- A Substack presence, for deeper philosophical dives
~ in end-of-life care situations, to
- help people process grief and transitions and document the lives of our loved ones. We can help you create books, eBooks, and digital storybooks or videos to be shared with families and friends at funeral services and beyond.
As a trauma-informed practice, we also support
- front-line workers, providing arts processes that help with neurological settling and self-regulation
- people of special needs and abilities (including humans who are neurodivergent), creating safe spaces for story-sharing, rebuilding self-esteem, and life-story transformation
as well as
- creating in-person and online learning tools for workplaces which may be stuck in non-optimal models they don’t know how to change.
Share, be heard and supported, learn from others, create new patterns and new paradigms.
Your community, whether professional, cultural or social, can benefit from the agency that creative practices bring to our being-in-the-world, co-creating our brighter, more ethical futures, together.
