Workshop Overview:
For centuries, we’ve known writers to be among the most profound thinkers, but it’s not because they’re innately wise! Writers use the tool of writing to access unexplored parts of their minds, making connections between the outside world and humanity, charting a course for a better future. Through writing, we make contact with previously unknown parts of ourselves, accessing a wiser, higher-level of thinking. The right tools can unlock courage and creative potential, shifting writing from an ordinary journaling practice to a portal for greater understanding.
This interactive, innovative workshop will take you on a deep dive into the use of writing as a tool to unearth unique personal wisdom and insight. This phenomenal teacher and revered writer will offer time-tested, seldom-shared writing techniques as a way to better understand yourself and others, find peace and purpose, and write yourself into a better life.
Rene’s work is acclaimed for its brilliant insights into the human condition—and for her ability to bring hope to others. This workshop is for writers and non-writers alike—no experience necessary! You will be guided every step of the way. Join us for a profound and supportive learning experience in which you practice writing your way into what is true for you.
