Description

Clean language aims to facilitate YOU in discovering and developing your own symbols and metaphors

A metaphor can be viewed as simply one person's description of something as 'like' something else. In George Lakoff and Mark Johnson's mind-expanding book, Metaphors We Live By, they say: "The essence of metaphor is understanding and  experiencing one kind of thing in terms of another." 

When one acknowledges that most of our thought processes go beyond our conscious understanding, metaphors give a unique perspective into how someone thinks, feels and experiences their world. 

Consider this - the tangible world around us is made up of billions and billions of constantly moving atoms and lots of empty space in between. What we see is our own internal perception -- colours, shapes, patterns.  

Isn't it all just a metaphor for the real thing? 

Perhaps metaphors are the closest we ever get to the 'true' experience of reality!

This workshop is designed to give you an experience of Clean Language during a friendly online session. We start by asking everyone present what they want to get out of the session and then we do our best to make sure that you get what you want - whether that’s learning about Clean Language or witnessing a demonstration.

In this way, the clean approach is demonstrated: the session is about you and what you want, rather than about me and what I may imagine you want to know. It also means each session is different and so you can join further sessions, learning something different each time. I want to answer your questions and give you an opportunity to get to learn more about clean language.
