<p>Important experiences can be challenging to process in the present. While we&rsquo;re often told not to linger on the past, it can be difficult to move on in life without a clear sense of where we&rsquo;ve come from. Like driving, we still need to look in the rear-view mirror to manoeuvre mindfully and journey forward.</p>
<p>People have been writing about their own lives for centuries. The process of writing reflectively encourages us to explore important memories, often unearthing forgotten moments, and to consider how we&rsquo;ve grown and developed since then. Creating a written piece can be a way of &lsquo;clearing the shelves&rsquo; in our minds and, like all writing, bring a sense of accomplishment.</p>
<p>This workshop is a dedicated space to reflect on an important memory or experience in your life, consider how it has impacted you, and use creative writing skills to begin developing a piece of reflective, autobiographical writing. We will also finish the workshop with some mindfulness through writing. The class is suitable for anyone who wants to develop their writing skills or dedicate time to exploring a significant past experience. No writing experience is necessary!<br /><br /></p>

A selection of hot drinks - including mulled wine tea! - and mince pies will be served to get you in the mood. 
The day will end with a gift wrapping session around our festive craft table, with a selection of items to choose from.

You will take all the lovely products you have created home with you on the day, and workshop correspondence and notes are sent to you electronically.
Favourite feedback
We love to hear what you think about our workshops. Here's a favourite review for soap making.
“A most enjoyable and relaxing experience. Our tutor, Jenny, made us feel right at home (and that's where we were! Thank you Lynn.) A great mixture of giving information, demonstrating, and practical experience of making soap. Everyone in the group was so friendly, and I felt as if I had known them much longer than a few hours. It was very pleasing to be able to take away the soap we had created - a real sense of achievement. Looking forward to making more at home. Many many thanks to Jenny, Lynn and the team for a memorable day: I loved it.” [Janice]

I am given a theme for the evening, usually on the day of the event itself and this then becomes our focus for the session, as we follow the guidance and teachings that arise through spoken word, meditation and sharing.
They are beautiful spontaneous affairs that are always different and sometimes surprising! Most importantly they foster a great sense of connection within and without and everyone feels empowered and inspired through attending.
I was guided by the great Goddess Isis to run the first of these events back in May of 2023 and they have been taking place ever since, on the last Wednesday of the month.
They really are special events. Come to one or come to many! There are no rules. If you would welcome the opportunity to connect with other like-minded women, then maybe this is for you...
A sacred hour just for you, to feel held, nurtured and cherished. Oh and I always pull everyone a Goddess Card at the end of the session. Some beautiful individual guidance from the Goddesses themselves...
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions, or take the plunge and come along to the next one. The only way you will discover if it's for you, like anything in life, is to take part...! This year, we are being called, to step into more of who we truly are, and sometimes we discover that by doing things that we have never done before...
