The world needs to hear your Dharma: your own spiritual journey,
expressed with truth, humility, and grace.
Dans cet atelier de six semaines, nous apprendrons à partager nos chemins spirituels par écrit: comment écrire avec authenticité et vulnérabilité, comment dire ce que nous voulons dire, et comment soutenir les autres et être soutenu dans l'acte de création.
Each session will explore another facet of spiritual writing. We will be writing together, examining the works of renowned writers who write about or lace spirituality through their stories, their essays, their poems. We will hear from contemporary artists writing from a spiritual perspective, and have the opportunity to ask them questions and explore our writing with them.
en outre, we will have weekly time to write together for the duration of the course. Each weekly writing session will start with brief meditation practice, a quote, and an optional prompt.
We will discuss and explore how we can connect with the mind of meditation and our own, essential creative force. This course is a safe and supportive space to take risks with our writing, and to find a warm community of fellow writers.
Live sessions will explore these topics and themes:
