I wrote Breathe. Write. Breathe. to share the powerful, ancient practices that have opened me, my clients and students to instant creative flow and inspiration to produce our best writing. It works for professionals, novices and anyone who wants—or needs—to write.
These practices can transform your writing and change your life!
Most people experience some struggle with writing—whether they get stuck, or can't summon the muse at will, or inspiration seems to dry up at times.
I've spent over two decades helping writers and anyone who wants to write—professionals, beginners and dabblers alike—to access their creative potential.
My breakthrough came in Qigong class—when I discovered that the mindful movement practices and deep breathing relaxed my mind and body, initiating a state of creative flow. I often found myself pausing the practice to jot down new ideas that flowed effortlessly.
I began deeper study of qigong under Qigong Master Robert Peng, earning teacher certification to teach RP QIgong's Empowerments and Happiness Qigong.
I brought these practices to my writing students and private clients, particuarly during our Get Your Writing Done sessions, where people reported that their writing became easier, more inspired and often their best work yet.

—Eric Maisel, author of dozens of creativity books, including Unleashing the Artist Within
“Creativity is the great healer, and Lisa Tener’s brilliant book presents potent methods for tapping into this transformative part of ourselves. Unlike other books on writing, Breathe. Write. Breathe. doesn’t just help us hunt for the muse in our minds, but rather grounds our creativity in body experience. By integrating ancient breathwork practices from qigong and yoga with creative writing, the book shows us how to tap into our subconscious. This is where our creative powers lie waiting for expression not only on the page but in our personal growth, as well. Finally, a book on writing that addresses the whole person—mind, body, and spirit.”
—Dr. Adam Zwig, singer-songwriter and psychologist
