Welcome All. All that is, all that is not, and all that will be.

We will be using the Open Floor Moving Meditation Cycle in this session.

After arriving, we will take a moment to sit or stand and breathe into what is moving or not moving at that moment. – Opening our Attention.

We will then take a few minutes to walk in our space to ground ourselves to our feet. – Entering into our bodies.

From there, we will begin to experience a musical landscape that you can move in whatever way feels comfortable. – Exploring how our body, heart, mind, and soul wish to express themselves.

We will end by sitting, laying down, or standing. – Letting our experience settle.

Then for those that desire, you will have 5 minutes to journal.

We will close with 5-10 minutes of Connection/Integration/Shares. This part is optional. And yet, we hope you will take the opportunity to share your experience. We all learn so much about and from each other during these shares.

No experience is needed. 

All are welcome.

Join me for embodiment through writing as we open up to what is moving within us through the expression of our thoughts using the written word. Thoughts that are inspired by provided words, poetry, songs, and quotes.

These prompts inspire writings that are playful, creative, serious, full of heart and always amazing. What comes through is always a revelation when we have no agenda but to write now, in the moment, right here with each other.

 We will then share and listen to each other’s writings. By this, we learn more about ourselves and each other thus expanding our understanding of what it means for each of us to be a human being. 

 Through our sharing, we realize how we are all different and yet all the same. We begin to develop an appreciation of our own way of expressing what we think and feel and find ourselves constantly touched and amazed by the expression of others. 

This is not about being a writer. This is about expressing yourself through the written word.  It’s fun, interesting and you will be surprised at how this opens you up to another way to embodiment through writing.
