Support through Creative Writing

Take the paths of expression to walk the journey of inner work, following the guidance of chosen prompts and thematic leads. At the crossroads of various styles of writing, therapeutic writing is not about journaling nor artistic creation in itself. The work done here is not about literary writing, nor intimate diaries. It invites us to engage in a personal reflection facilitated by specific topics and suggested styles and types of work, which allows for a rich inner exploration and discoveries.

This kind of self-awareness development, insightful reflection and creative unlocking require an intentional attentiveness and presence that we develop and nurture during the workshops.

The journey of unveiling and integration through writing is organized around themes that build on each other. Each theme can be approached independently, or as part of a sequence of comprehensive work. The complete modules help move from a self-centred focus to one of service and openness to the other, in a movement of growth and development.

Each main movement is focused on a particular emphasis that will drive the main writing work of that theme, and unfolds into sub-themes that will allow for deeper integration.

• Forming in capacity : character virtue, energy and desire, gifts, talents and ability, actualization.
• Integrating in wholeness: incarnation, presence, attentiveness to body, mind, heart and spirit
• Expanding in consciousness: the self, the other (interpersonal), the others (community), the world.
• Enabling through the work: a disciplined life, engaging the work with tools, methods, and artistry.
• Serving in the world: calling, compassion, creation and engagement.

• This approach is grounded in doctoral research into poetic inquiry, apophatic theology, and the relationship between language, spiritual life, and transformation. For a few hours of introductory workshop, or for weekly or monthly engagements or even a long journey, we can walk together through the themes. Gatherings are small by design. Unhurried by intention. Found, usually, by the people they are for. Connect to discuss the most suitable format for your needs and aspirations.
