Online Catalogue:Audio:David Whyte Life At The Frontier Every person and every organization needs an edge or frontier with the world where a real conversation is possible. Yet many of our inherited ideas about leadership do not survive the everyday reality of a changing, multi-cultural world. How do we provide a strong sense of leadership without coercion or manipulation? With his unique blend of poetry, humor and insight, David talks about how we can keep our edge with colleagues, customers and especially in our own personal lives, through understanding the elements of real conversation. (2 CD set - 129 minutes) Price:  €24,94 Including VAT at 21% Faithful To All Things On this CD, David compares the practice of sitting zen with the practice of writing - the gateways for each are difficult and involve a fierce way of paying attention to the world. The acts of silence and breathing, and the apprenticeship to utterance, engage us in unspoken conversation with those that have gone before, both known and unknown. Price:  €19,94 Including VAT at 21% Footsteps: A Writing For Life In "Footsteps," David creates the intimacy of a conversation, the voice quiet but alchemical, tracing the creative path through his four books of poetry: Songs for Coming Home, Where Many Rivers Meet, Fire In the Earth and The House of Belonging. "Footsteps" is an autobiographical tour with its emphasis firmly on a long apprenticeship to the difficult arts of poetry, and the stages of articulation that emerge with many years of writing. 6 CD Set Price:  €65,95 Including VAT at 21% The Three Marriages Each of us must sustain three marriages in our lives: The marriage with our work and society, the marriage - official or not - with our partner, and the deeper marriage with our emerging selves. To choose between these relationships is to impoverish them all. Work-life balance means creating a real conversation, a live frontier between all three commitments that enriches eaach one, allowing it to be simultaneously troubled and emboldened by the others. Join David Whyte for a poetic and compelling investigation of these important commitments of a human life. 2 CD's - running time 109 minutes Price:  €26,95 Including VAT at 21% A Change For The Better On "A Change for the Better: Poetry & the Reimagination of Midlife", David speaks to an increasing sense of vulnerability as a key experience of midlife - a vulnerability not to be turned from, but inhabited almost as a new faculty of perception - a doorway to the next stage of life and a sixth sense that can put us into a new conversation with the world. Price:  €19,94 Including VAT at 21% The Opening Of Eyes On "The Opening of Eyes: The Poetry of Intimacy & Imagination" David reminds us of how easily we forget what it means to be fully present in this remarkable world, and how transformative it is to pay real attention. Paying real attention, we recall our first priorities and start to enter a deep form of remembering; a profound state which the Greeks called "the mother of the muses;" the source of all human creativity. Price:  €19,94 Including VAT at 21% The Echo In The Well On the first CD of this two CD set, David Whyte recites new poems from the cycle of Irish poems contained in his latest work, "River Flow: New & Selected Poems." Drawing from places of pilgrimage he has visited during his travels, he speaks of the way the ancient Celtic tradition embodies an edge between past and present; a way that is neither this nor that; a moveable form of celebration between the two worlds that refuses to choose between them. On the second Disc, David uses the language of poetry to illuminate the secret voices that are present in everyday life.
