Life is filled with stress and challenges that are the stuff of the human condition. Our own stuff is as varied and individual as we are. It is sometimes crisis fueled and tightly packed, sometimes stagnant and empty. At times it delivers change we need, other times it burdens us with anxiety and sadness. Often it is a confusing jumble of all these things.

How’s your mind? Too full!
How do you cope? Oddly enough, with mindfulness.

Personal and reflective writing is a deeply effective and clinically proven tool for meeting yourself where you’re at and navigating your path. Checking in with yourself and writing whatever comes is a practice in mindfulness and a form of meditation where you can…

– internally stretch, exhale, and restore
– talk with yourself and listen for what resonates
– increase awareness
– integrate logic and emotion
– find insight and understanding
– develop perspective and clarity
– foster your own center for balance and resilience

This class provides prompts and guided exercises that exceed standard journaling practices, but don’t go as deep into neuroscience as our Intuitive Writing courses do. We will borrow a few exercises from IW along the way, but an Intuitive Writing class is NOT a prerequisite.

Open to all writing levels, whether first timers or experienced sages.

Exercise prompts and formats are continually rotated and added to, so that you can repeat this course on an ongoing basis.
