Online: Restorative Practices 2 Day Training- April

Join us live Online on April 3rd and April 29th for a transformative two-day training experience in Restorative Practices with Kerrie Sellen and Restorative Journeys.

Restorative Journeys unique, in-depth restorative framework redefines how we understand and manage relationships and conflict, making this not your typical restorative practices training. This approach goes beyond traditional methods by integrating insights into the biology behind relationships, language, conflict, and our responses to them.

In this restorative training, you’ll learn why “conflict is normal, but combat is optional” and how understanding this, while using the explicit framework, helps prevent harm, foster growth, and build lasting connections. Restorative Journeys explicit restorative framework equips you with practical tools to repair, build, and maintain strong, connected relationships and communities, both personally and professionally. These actionable tools will empower you to start creating positive change from Day 1.

Using a Restorative Practice Framework
This approach allows participants to create supportive conditions that encourage others to:

  • Make sense and meaning of where they are at and how they got there.
  • Work out what matters and what’s important.
  • Identify what needs to change and understand their role in that change.
  • Build and sustain healthy relationships.
