about this workshop:

Journaling comes in many forms. In this workshop, you will gather in the serene and inspiring living room lobby of guesthouse by good neighbor to play with writing, drawing, breath, and moving to find a journaling practice that fits your life. Warm up with writing for flow, experiment with prompts for generating focus, and ground into practice with meditation and breathwork. You'll leave with an array of expressive, creative practices for writing and supporting your life in the process.

What's included:

  • Creative connections and guided discussion

  • Journaling prompts and practices for continuing at home

  • A guided meditation

  • Paper, pens for writing
