Writing Programs
Want a taste of Eye of the Heart’s Writing Programs?
Take our free online writing class, The Gifts of Writing Micro-course. This short class will orient you to the gift of writing that you both receive and give as a gift to others. Elizabeth Jarrett Andrew, author and writing teacher, will lead you through four short lessons to orient you and open you and your writing up for transformation.
Writing Your Sacred Journey
Join Elizabeth Jarrett Andrew to explore the art and practice of spiritual memoir writing. Each session will give participants the opportunity to write, time for conversation, inspiration from model writers, and insights about craft, content, and practice. These monthly practice sessions are meant for writers of all levels, including absolute beginners.
Move Onto the Page: Embodied Co-Writing
This 2-hour online co-writing practice invites embodied creativity through breath and movement to help writers move beyond resistance and open to their imaginations. After an accessible Let Your Yoga Dance® practice that focuses on curiosity and play, we’ll act as accountability partners as we co-write for an hour. Afterward, we’ll have a chance to share snippets from works in progress or our discoveries about embodied creative process before a closing meditation.
No dance experience needed. Participants should wear clothing that allows for movement and bring a work in progress.
A Month of Meditation & Evening Pages - November
Are you looking for a contemplative or creative reset? Do you want to explore how a consistent practice of evening pages (adapted from Julia Cameron’s The Artist’s Way) can support a more creative life? Would you benefit from the accountability of like-minded practitioners? Join yoga therapist and writer Elizabeth Fletcher online for a month of meditation and evening pages. We’ll begin with a ten-minute heart-centering meditation, followed by twenty minutes of longhand, stream-of-consciousness writing. As a bonus, these quieting evening practices have been shown to improve sleep when practiced over time.
Story as Gift: Writing to and for Friends and Family
This two-part workshop will provide structure and space for crafting a brief personal story from your life to give as a gift for someone dear to you. Both sessions will include time to write and opportunities to reflect on and share your work with other participants.
