Write of Passage: Into the Mind’s Eye

September 17-19, 2010

Saturday and Sunday 11am-6pm


Everything we experience lives on in our cells. Whether you love to write or freeze at the very thought, Write of Passage allows you to dip your pen into this infinite well. Rather than thinking of something to write, you learn to simply listen onto the page.

We use the fire of the 5Rhythms practice to open the riches stored in our bodies. Writing directly from breath to heart to hand to page, we fly past the critical mind without a backward glance, allow ourselves to be messy, wild,
unpolished. We listen, we laugh, we dream aloud and fumble together — until we are struck silent by the unexpected poetry that leaps from every pen.

There is nothing to make up. There are no skills required. This is the place where writing, a solitary act, shatters the isolation between us. This is medicine for the hungry heart. Join us.
