Write to Wake Up: Creative Writing and Meditation (AC1M24)

Registration closes at 9:00am (Pacific Time) on April 27, 2024. A waiting list will be created if the program fills early. A recording* will be available following the program.

Description:
Unleash your stories, stir your imagination, and honor the wild heart of your life through an immersive weekend of creative writing and meditation. Together we’ll practice writing in a way that helps us wake up. We’ll settle our minds and open our hearts through meditation in movement and stillness, so we can write from a deeper place. Through sharing our stories with each other, we’ll connect with our common humanity.

Our weekend together will include:

• guided meditation practice;
• writing prompts that awaken imagery, memory, and story;
• gentle mindful movement practices to increase sensitivity, develop inner listening, and unclog pathways of creative energy;
• inspirational poems and quotes;
• practical teachings to make your writing more vivid and powerful;
• sharing your writing in small groups without judgment or critique.

Sliding Scale: Our sliding scale options for this program include financial support for our teachers. Please consider paying at the highest rate that you can afford: your generosity supports the teachers as well as Spirit Rock, staff, and your fellow practitioners.
