Coming soon,2025,26.
Deep dive writing workshops designed for a small group of writers of any project at any level to feel supported and relaxed.
Taking our inspiration from the Japanese onsen experience over one or two days we combine the relaxing therapies of sauna, soak, massage and scrub with deep dive writing.
First comes the bathhouse experience, where after surrendering our everyday worries, anxieties and tensions to the healing elements of water, fire air and earth, we experience a deep state of relaxation. Transitioning into a workshop space with a program of guided meditations we scan the body for sense imagery asking — what stories does the elbow, the right earlobe, the left kneecap have to tell? Using free writing techniques we follow the body’s cues, transforming the offerings of the subconscious into powerful writing.
Delicious snacks and refreshments keep our energy up as we follow our explorations, using them to develop an existing work, start one anew or investigate/reflect on past body issues, illnesses, injuries or scars.
