Behind me is 'BLOB HOMES' 
one of the many Blob Tools. 

(Search blobtree.com - to get one yourself)

It has many different homes like a 

tower block. 

Mansion with swimming pool. 

A car. 

A slum. 

A shop doorway. 

A ship. ......... 

I ask people to identify their childhood home

or 

'what has been your worst experience of HOME?' 

(& other questions). 

This is a massive experiential exercise in self disclosure. 

The results are powerful. 

Everyone learning from each other - 

the room full of stillness. 

#Vulnerability on show. 

Opening humans - like flowers to the sun. All in a climate of trust. 

Unforgettable.

Your wounds .......

Draw.

Teenage Brains.

.... can you believe it that our brains don’t fully develop until our mid 20’s. 

The last part to click into place are the emotional development department.

Inaction feeds the monster inside us ................

..... releasing interior pain needs a decision. 

Inaction feeds the monster inside. 

Stopping us being who are & who we can BECOME. 

We all need to have one person in our lives 

who we can trust & can hear us. 

If you have not trusted anyone in your current circle - write your feelings out. 

A way of mastering our inner being. 

OTHERWISE our head heart & soul can be like 

a cement mixer. 

Churning around non stop. 

It’s only when we stop that churning & pour ...

.... then it becomes concrete. 

More understandable - 

we can take charge of our 

🅱🅴🅰🆄🆃🅸🅵🆄🅻 self. 

A new inner being BECOMING.

My friend Dave says:: "I recognise the guy in the middle but who are the other four"?

A plastic bag containing their life belongings.

Working in Hostels for young people.

OFTEN a young adult walks in slowly.

Carrying a plastic bag.

A plastic bag containing their life belongings.

The approach reception with caution.

Fleeting glances all around this central hub area.

The receptionist calls in the duty Hostel staff member.

"Hello" and without stopping walking

there is a walk past -

"I will be with you in a few minutes - hang on"

NO NO NO NO !

My awareness training of staff is

NOT to behave like this.

The first 4 minutes of meeting someone

LASTS FOREVER

The FIRST thing to day is a warm welcome

maybe a

Handshake::

"My name is ******"

and then "lets get you a cup of tea"

guiding the potential resident to the coffee bar

" I will get you a cup of tea.........." - 

( and guided hand to a comfortable seat comes next and a few words about themselves NOT an instant questioning of who they are and their homelessness questions!

(A CUP OF TEA IS MAYBE

THE FIRST FOR DAYS)

And then, only then, (if they have to) - 

"can you have a sit down for a few minutes

I need to finish my little task and

I will be with you very soon"

The first four minutes ............................

Where growth RESIDES
