July 30: Writing from Body & Earth with Marianela Medrano & Caryn Mirriam-Goldberg: Join us for an afternoon of “Writing From the Body” with Marianela Medrano and “Writing From the Earth” with Caryn Mirriam-Goldberg. By writing about where we are – as bodies, and as part of the earth — we can generate powerful, new writing as we deepen our sense of being at home in our skin and on the earth. We’ll explore identity, callings, embodiment, personal history, ecology, and what it means to both live in specific bodies and places. Most of all, we’ll be illuminating how to make the visible – what’s right here in/of our bodies, dwellings, local terrain, weather and skies – more visible, and use that new vision as a lantern to lead us toward greater homecoming. Registration information and details here.
