About this event

Welcome to the Poetic Self-Expansion Studio ⚛🎨❤️🧠🤸✍️⚛

This is a experimental playspace designed to nurture the creative inspiration that shines through in a present, reflective state.

Each session, we'll engage in guided contemplative exercises to explore what it means to be beautifully human as you are - right here, right how.

Using contemplative practices rooted in mindfulness, imaginal play, embodiment, and authentic relating, we'll get out of our heads, reflect on our experiences through the wisdom of our bodies, and nurture a writing practice that deepens intimacy with the creative soul. Each session differs in terms of the specific contemplative practice we'll engage in, but the structure is always the same (see below).

As you get closer to the ground of your being, you'll be surprised at what emerges - both on and off the page!


Join us Wednesday mornings at 8am!


ON NOW -> We're currently hosting the series, "Being in Wonder". Inspired by Collective Presencing, we'll meet weekly to reflect on a guiding inquiry using a variety of creative contemplative practices.


Each session will consist of:
➡️ Check -ins and Context Setting: We'll begin by grounding and sharing what's alive as we arrive to the shared space.
➡️ Guided Creative Practice/Exercise: Introduce our guiding inquiry and engage in guided contemplative practice.
➡️ Silent Writing Time: Dedicated time to write, where we bridge the gap between our present inner experience and our written expression.

➡️ Sharing and Feedback: Share excerpts of our writing with the group and provide supportive feedback, focusing on the positive impact of presencing each other's creations.

Invitations:
1. Have writing tools on hand

2. Camera on, sound off (at first)

3. Place any questions in the chat and I'll do my best to answer them as they come up.

4. Your favorite thirst-quenching elixir doesn't hurt ;)

5. Bring a playful mind, a caring heart, and patient surrender to the magic of the pen!


We meet online using Google Meet.
