Joyous Expression – A Day of Meditation and Writing Practice
Saturday, May 23, 2020
10am to 4pm
Location: A private home in Auburn

Experience a day of peace and creativity by learning “Writing Practice,” based on Natalie Goldberg’s Writing Down the Bones. This technique can be a purely meditative practice, where within a basic structure and simple guidelines, one allows the mind to flow freely, lets the thoughts travel onto the page, and then lets go of them and moves on. It can also be used for specific writing purposes: for beginners to learn to write, for a daily warm-up, to deepen and improve your writing, or to work out specific writing problems. Cost of the day is $50. Space is limited to 20 people, so please register by April 23. To register, please email maryhelen@maryhelenfein.com.
