The Core

According to author Lloyd Ripley-Evans, in The Core author-led course, it is necessary to explore our foundations and relationships from our ‘core’ perspective.

The Chambers Concise Dictionary (1990) gives a number of definitions of the term ‘core’. The one which is most appropriate to this author-led course is “the inner-most, or most essential, part of something”.

When he speaks about the core of someone, Ripley-Evans is referring to the very foundation of someone; in other words, what makes them tick and without this core, the person wouldn’t function. Think about the core of someone as being their heart: if someone doesn’t have a heart, they don’t live. The same is true for The Core.

The Core Concept, which the author speaks about, is divided into three parts:

• ME
• US
• THEM

He says that, in today’s world, we often don’t focus our attention inwards and thus, as a result, we are always looking outwards. However, in order to be the most effective in life, we need to have people around us – the US and THEM – to help us become fully functioning, autonomous people.

In The Core author-led course, Lloyd Ripley-Evans teaches students how they can use the concept of The Core to enrich their daily lives and their relationships with others.
