Writing the Bright Moment with Roselle Angwin
Sat 26 Aug 2017 to Sat 2 Sep 2017
This is a retreat week to quicken the heart, fire the imagination and enliven the senses

Through lively discussion, stimulating writing tasks for the imagination, shared silence and slow walking as well as words and readings, poetry and story, time outdoors, mindfulness exercises and creative prompts we’ll find new ways of being in and writing from each moment – effortlessly.

Expect a friendly group, a deepening of your sense of connectedness (with yourself and your imagination, with others, and with the land), a great deal of sometimes surprising writing (prose & poetry), a slowing down, some play, a lot of laughter, and an opening of your imagination and your heart. And warmth – seasonal and human.

This retreat will focus on developing our writing at the same time as deepening our sense of relationship to the world around us, in this moment – the only one we ever have.

There’ll be time, too, to simply be in the natural world, and, if you’d like, to immerse yourself in the waterfall pool – or seek out a hammock. Throughout, there will be gentle prompts to relax into the present moment and its joys and gifts.

Most years, there’s an opportunity for music, dance and/or dynamic meditation, if that appeals to you. Some people also choose to stay on for the second work-in-progress week to deepen their writing practice.

Price includes all course tuition (£300), accommodation and delicious vegetarian meals with an Ayurvedic focus (£495) and wine. Single rooms will be provided to all participants depending on availability unless otherwise requested.
