Writing is healing. Writing brings our feelings and ideas to the forefront of our awareness, and writing unpacks or unravels whatever we’ve been holding inside.  Our journal circle will begin with time to settle into our space, then Sarah will facilitate a guided meditation or mindfulness exercise to tap into the writer within.  She will offer guidance and provide prompts for us to put pen to paper, but we are free to follow our own thoughts without any particular aim.  Often we may be surprised with where our writing leads us.  

Writing fosters connection.  We will end each journal circle with time to share.  While there is no pressure to share, our intention is to create a safe container for us to write and share in community, to support and hold each other through whatever comes up in our journaling.  This circle is open to anyone seeking connection, reflection, and clarity.  We hope to bring a group together on a monthly basis, each month centered around a different theme or topic.  This month we will explore parts of our inner world that may go unnoticed or unspoken, directing awareness to hidden or unconscious aspects of the self.  With compassion, our writing will illuminate the shadow side within.
