Writing Workshop with Justen Ahren
​Devotion to Writing: Cultivate a Daily Writing Practice
Dates: Tuesday evenings April 13 - May 11
Time: 7:00-8:30PM EST
Location: online via Zoom
Fee: $250
This is a unique generative writing workshop to get you writing and keep you writing. Creative Energy is our natural gift. It is the essence of who we are, the very expression of Being itself. When we cultivate a daily writing practice, we bring ourselves into communion with this part of ourselves. By expressing and exercising our writing on daily basis, we build into our lives a channel of creative magic, abundance, and flow, and our lives become expressions of the life force continuously blooming and opening through us.
This 6-week workshop will help you release the writing within you, develop your imaginative skills, and learn how to sustain yourself as a creative writer. Each week we will explore how a rituals, gratitude, surrender, even doubt and play, can aid our practice and enable us to express more deeply and more freely than ever before.
