Third time is CHARM!
It's the class you love, back for more. That's right, the good times will continue to roll on as we come together and spend time exploring and enjoying poetry. Each week I create an environment that is warm, welcoming and actively encourages a lack of perfectionism. Alongside others creative folks, you will practice letting go and enjoy the feeling of writing, simply for the fun of it.
March 25th is the first gathering in this next online series of 6 CREATIVE WRITING CLASSES, for anyone with a desire to write - - no prior writing experience is necessary.
During each class the group will read poems and receive prompts, then engage in timed writing sessions. There will be space to share and receive feedback on your work, which is OPTIONAL.
You are not at all required to share what you have written.
I’ll get us started with a short meditation to get the creative
energy flowing and to ground us in our intention.
$50/class and each session will run 3 hours (10A - 1P PDT).
Zoom info provided upon payment. Classes may be purchased as a series of 6 or individually.
Creative writing classes provide an important opportunity: to develop your confidence as a writer. It’s a muscle that grows stronger each time you use it.

Monthly Death Cafés - 4th Wednesday of the month
5:00pm - 6:30pm PT / 8:00pm - 9:30pm ET
A death café serves to provide a space to discuss our thoughts, feelings, ideas and responses to death and dying. So one may not live in fear, but in reality with ease.
Oh, it's also a good time to enjoy a snack! So, grab a beverage, something wonderful to eat and join the conversation.

Music: Threshold Choirs, Burial Hymns and Sad Songs
How music plays a role in the rituals and ceremonies around death and dying. What songs are meaningful to you or played in your faith tradition? What music brings you comfort?
May 24, 2023 - - canceled / to be rescheduled
Taboo Deaths: How do you grieve a death no one will speak of? When death occurs outside of old age or accidents, how can we show up for ourselves and others?

OPEN DISCUSSION
Come and talk about what's on your mind or simply keeping you up at night. Thoughts of death can feel stressful and talking about with others can help ease anxious feelings.
