Winter depth writing workshop - Hebden Bridge,

Depth writing is a transformational writing practice grounded in Jungian psychology & neuroscience aimed at supporting self-discovery & nurturing your innate creativity.

This Winter depth writing workshop will be a chance to reflect on the cycles of your self-experience through the symbolism of Winter and the season's associations with a time of dormancy and darkness where life appears to go underground and we're invited to cultivate the inner light of imagination and dreams.

The workshop will be a chance to press pause on the busyness of life to reflect, share and write. It will include guided writing exercises of between approximately five and fifteen minutes, small group discussions and a break with tea & cake. As the focus of depth writing is on process and on what comes up in the writing, rather than craft, there will never be any pressure to read anything out (although you can if you wish).

Who is it for?

Writers, creative & therapeutic practitioners, seekers & inner explorers who are on a journey of self-discovery and who are comfortable with diving deeper.

Pay what you can: £25 -£40

Workshop Guidelines

Throughout the workshop you'll be invited to:

• Take responsibility for your experience by working with the material in a way that feels right for you
• Avoid over-disclosing any matter that is particularly private or painful
• Consider where you might seek outside support if anything difficult comes up
• Practice CARE - confidentiality, attention, respect & empathy - with others
