Join Mission Belonging for this special Pop-Up Workshop with poet and healing practitioner, Sarah Alayne Martin!

? As autumn releases its last leaves, we gather to honor what wants to fall away within. Through yoga Nidra's deep rest and the luminous words of poets Ross Gay, Nikki Finney, Gwendolyn Brooks, and Danez Smith, we'll write in and through the grief. Together, we'll explore how grief can hold gratitude, how loss can transform us, and how the radical act of naming what we carry can help us set it down.

✍️ No experience with yoga or poetry necessary; Just bring what you're ready to let go and discover what wants to compost on the page. ?

? Sarah Alayne Martin is a poet and trauma-informed healing practitioner who merges poetry, yoga, drumming, and storytelling into a novel healing art form. Sarah was honored as the featured poet of the National Endowment for the Arts 2025 Creative Forces Convening and through fellowships with Anaphora Arts Poetry (2022) and Pacific University’s Kwame Dawes Mapmakers Teaching Assistantship (2025). Their writing has appeared in publications such as Spoken Black Girl Magazine and Sovereign Noire Media. Currently pursuing an MFA in Writing at Pacific University, Sarah's poetry draws from nature and lived experience to offer transformative portals for spiritual ascension, personal and collective healing, and radical world-building.
