Fearless Creativity: A Meditation Retreat for Writers
with Susan Piver
Three full days of writing retreat with best-selling author, Susan Piver.
Writing connects us to the undercurrents of wisdom that lie just below the surface of discursive thought. It puts us in touch with timely insights, concerns, ideas and our natural wakefulness. If you want to know your thoughts and feelings, writing can tell you. If you want to share yourself with others, writing can be your vehicle. And if you long for creative self-expression, writing can give it form.
In this program, we will deepen our relationship with the written word through meditation practice, journaling, group discussion and plenty of personal writing time. We will also discuss how to make writing a daily practice, how to approach the fears every writer experiences and more.
Writers of all genres, published or unpublished, are welcome. Introductory meditation instruction will be offered.Susan Piver is a New York Times best-selling author of eight books and a contributor to Shambhala Sun. Her latest book is The Wisdom of a Broken Heart. Susan has been authorized to teach meditation in the Shambhala Buddhist lineage since 2006. Learn more about her here.
