~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This six-week virtual series will explore transformation from the inside out as we engage with philosophies and embodied examples of transformative practices. We will write to process experience, to transmute pain, to make connections, and to engender positive change.

Classes will begin with simple asanas, breathing practices, and guided meditation. We will then engage with writing prompts, discuss the week’s theme, and, if desired, share portions of our writing.

This is primarily a generative writing space and an opportunity for personal centering; while there will be optional readings, your presence is most important.

Free Introductory Workshop: May 3, 20226 10 am PST
