Testimonials

“I had been feeling disconnected from the ‘writer’ part of me [for several years]. While walking around the property, I suddenly felt as though I was reunited with that aspect. It literally felt as though I came back into my body from the right side – like a whoosh. I felt so happy because this is the part of me that was more connected to joy and creativity in general. You can imagine my excitement.”

“The ‘Meet Your Muse’ exercise was fantastic. I’d been feeling a little stuck all week, and I could feel the pressures of everyday life hampering my creative flow. After this 10-minute practice, I was already feeling rejuvenated and inspired to return to my work in progress. I’ve been thinking of it every day since [the retreat]. Thank you for putting such care into the whole day! I wouldn’t change a thing!”

“Just being in the presence of such amazingly talented facilitators and other creative people…As someone new to the world of writing, I enjoyed learning about the Tener Method and LOVED the Meet Your Muse practice. The location was so peaceful and inspiring. Practicing Qigong with others was just the “chi” I needed to re-ignite my own personal practice.”

“Moved to interact with the sensory world more to get in touch with my essence of writing…The experience of this retreat continues to create insights.”

“I enjoyed the pacing of the entire day. Beginning outside with grounding movement and breath-work, then moving inside for writing… exploring and talking with others. The beach cove setting is heavenly and quite healing..an outstanding day!!!”

“The whole experience was effective to get me back in a writing practice. I have been writing more since.”
