‘There’s a thread you follow. It goes among
things that change. But it doesn’t change . . . ‘
William Stafford
This retreat is a rare and exciting opportunity to blend our mindfulness and meditation practice with a wider exploration of our spiritual lives using creative writing.
The retreat will take place entirely online through the weekend, so you can participate from home. Short online sessions will be interspersed with offline private writing time.
We’ll combine our meditation with a series of stimulating (and sometimes ingenious) exercises, most of them involving writing in some form. They’ll gently open up new directions in which fresh and insightful new personal discoveries may unfold.
You don’t have to be an experienced meditator, nor a clever writer. All you’ll need is an open mind and heart, and your pen and paper. There’ll be opportunities to read our work aloud to the rest of us – but that will be entirely voluntary.
'Nothing you do can stop times unfolding
You don't ever let go of the thread'
