Raising Our Voices, Writing Our Lives is the original workshop out of which the others have emerged. While the individual workshops share many similarities, the goals for each are different. In this workshop our main focus will be discovering the story that begins the memoir.
Working with specifically developed exercises, Writing Through the Body facilitators will help you access your own deep creative source. You will be helped towards the actual embodiment of your story, and guided in such a way as to easily give it sensual existence.
Ashlars’ workshops are different from other writing groups in that you will learn a format that is very precise, with exercises structured so that all writing done in the workshop is moving towards a larger individual autobiography
We make use of such concepts as curiosity and non-judgment in terms of the stories that emerge in the writing. You will hear us say: here’s how you access the creative impulse, allow it entrance; stay connected to the deep creative core; see what story longs to be told.
