Free Live Virtual Summer Retreat: Join Us!
You’re invited to a virtual summer retreat: Writing into the Rhythms of Summer Solstice. And I’m delighted to be teaming up again with my dear friend, author and writing coach Charlotte Rains Dixon.
Because…Summer! What better season for replenishing and renewing?
As Sam Keen says…
Deep summer is when laziness finds respectability.
Without a doubt summer invites us to dial back the striving.
To take some time to set aside agendas and ambitions, and surrender to a kind of playfulness that is freeing and rare. Because so often, in our attempts to lead meaningful, purpose-driven lives, we forget how important play is too.
The truth is, most of us don’t really get enough play.
There’s a thinly veiled bias against it in our society. It doesn’t quite fit with the emphasis on doing more, being more, having more.
And perhaps you feel like there’s simply not enough time for it with the reality of day-to-day life and all the responsibilities of adulting.
The yearning for play persists though, in almost all of us.
Real play. Deep play. True play.
So let’s gather together to write into the rhythms of summer and experience some playful replenishing and renewing.
We’ll come together to write and honor the arrival of summer through a potent blend of…
•reflective writing
•story sharing
•poetry
•prose
•guided meditation

During this summer virtual retreat, we’ll spend two hours together.
We’ll celebrate having just passed the longest day of the year. We’ll honor the sun at the height of its power. And we’ll explore what we most need as the season unfolds and the days begin to shorten.
We’ll be writing together, talking, listening and breathing deeply.
You can participate in the summer virtual retreat at whatever level feels good to you. If there’s time, you’ll be invited to share your writing, but only if you feel comfortable doing so. No pressure, no critiques. This writing is just for you.
