The blank page awaits you. If that sounds scary, then this series of journalling workshops is exactly for you. In a series of twelve weekly 75-minute sessions, Heidi will offer open-ended prompts to allow your voice to flow onto the page. Through relaxing somatic techniques you’ll learn to still your inner environment, then dip into a deep sensory well of experience, drawing out wise words.
As with all of Heidi’s workshops, the focus is entirely on process, not product. She believes that creative flow comes from playful places which build safe scaffolding to honour and hold deep feelings. Sharing your writing with the group is always optional. There will be opportunity for connection, but the focus will be on connection within yourself. There will be opportunity for fun brain-storming exchanges to inspire each other in the Zoom chat window. All you need is a pen and a journal, and curiosity about how you’ll befriend the blank page.

Thursdays are now my favorite day of the week- I get my medicine, my great big beam of sunshine when I settle into our group for our time together. Thank you so much Heidi for helping us all through a very challenging winter! M.D.
