In Person Guide
-
Agree a mutual location, date and time when all the group members are available. We suggest choosing a venue that is a reasonable distance for everyone within the group to travel to. The venue type for example can be in your local community hall, temple, or someone’s home.
It is suggested you agree a set weekly, fortnightly, monthly date and time so everyone can plan in advance. This avoids having to shift each session.
To help group communication you can set-up a WhatsApp group or email group. -
Preparation and planning is vital so make sure you have a regular venue that is comfortable and large enough to host your entire group. Consider a backup venue just in case your primary one becomes unavailable at short notice.
-
The host should create an account on this platform, LivingWithWisdom.org Nanak and register to the preferred course.
It is advisable to download the course in advance so there are minimal technical issues when running the course. -
We suggest to send out a meeting link a few days before the session, along with a reminder message.
-
The host and helper (if applicable) should arrive at the venue slightly early to set-up and welcome guests as they arrive.
-
Once everyone is at the venue and has settled into the space the host can start the session.
Instructions of how to run each session can be found in ‘Notes For Facilitator’ section of the course.
