The barrage of bad news and intensifying anxiety about the future of our country, world, and planet can feel paralyzing. In this workshop, we will explore intentional ways to approach the page in the face existential angst and overwhelm. We will devote a significant amount of time writing in response to prompts that encourage us to soothe, nourish, and empower the heart. There will also be opportunities for sharing in-class writing and connecting in meaningful ways with other creative people wanting to cultivate more equanimity in life. All the participants in the class will receive a resource packet with work by authors (such as Audre Lorde, James Baldwin, Joy Harjo, & Anne Lamott) who inspire us to live courageously and a list of suggested practices that foster peace.
