*We invite you to take this opportunity to cultivate stillness and express what arises. Every time we guide our wandering minds back to the breath, we offer ourselves a fresh start. Every time we meditate and then pick up our pens to write in response to a poem, we are in a realm of unlimited possibilities.*
Lisa Freedman will lead this meditation and poetry session. We will start with a short meditation, read a poem as prompt, and then free write. We will then share our writings (optional), listening closely to each other. No meditation or writing experience is required. A welcoming and generative writing space.
Lisa Freedman earned her MFA from the New School, where she now teaches “Starts in Silence: A Meditation and Writing Workshop.” She founded Breathe/Read/Write in 2016. Her writings have appeared in Satya Magazine, Shambhala Times, and the anthology Resist Much Obey Little: Inaugural Poems to the Resistance, among others. See more at LFWritingCoach.com.
