Sundays, March 24, April 7, April 14, April 21 (Class will not meet on March 31)
A daily writing practice and a consistent meditation practice have the power to ground and center us during difficult times. Writing gives us perspective and helps us make sense of the world. Mindfulness teaches us how to make space for the joy as well as the fear.
This 4-week online class invites participants of all experience levels to delve deeply into both practices.
During each meeting, we’ll use guided meditation and mindfulness exercises to cultivate the resources necessary to cope in times of crisis, as well as nourish our creativity. These will be combined with bursts of free writing—what Natalie Goldberg calls ‘writing practice’—to help us uncover our truest voice.
There will also be the opportunity to share our writing in a safe and supportive environment, as well as touch on various aspects of writing craft.
Every participant in the class will be given a one month’s membership in the daily writing app, Creative Caffeine Daily (a $40 value). Creative Caffeine Daily uses daily prompts and weekly partners to motivate and inspire writers. Find out more at Creative Caffeine Daily.
A separate daylong workshop will be offered onsite at Green Gulch Farm on Sunday, May 26, from 10am - 4pm PT with Janis Newman and Chikudo Catherine Spaeth. You are welcome to sign up for either or both events. One is not a prerequisite for the other, but you may enjoy a deepening of your experience by engaging with the material in person.
