Sacred Script: A Contemplative Writing Community for QT/BIPOC
Uncertainty feels like a long time stay, doesn’t it? Do you find yourself having a difficult time knowing what to do in the space in-between? Have you gone to the protest, signed the petitions, done “the work” and are asking yourself “Now what?”
In the gap between action and manifestation, sometimes unwanted guests come knocking – be it fear, grief, anxiety, or others. These guests can crowd our house of self and make it difficult to reconnect to what really matters.
The conditions of our spirit matter as much as that of our mind and body. Spirit offers root when there appears to be none. In a time when we are inundated daily of the dissolve of our lands, violence, illness, and violations of human rights, we need to find ways to stay present and nurture an ongoing connection with what matters most to us versus draining our energy in reaction to the myriad of atrocities lining our feed.
This gathering is a practice of sacredness, of sacred inquiry to deepen our roots as the torrents of change pass through. It will keep us dreaming and sculpting through the pen what we want to see. Through teachings, multiple practices, poetry, small group work, play in between sessions, and large group invitations, we will create a contemplative writing community in practice of emergence and opening to Spirit, however you define it, to offer support and insight.
If you identify as QT/BIPOC join Dr. g for 5 weeks Thursdays starting September 1, 2022 8:00 - 9:30 AM PST for a 90-minute practice of sacred inquiry. Every meeting will include:
30 minutes of contemplative practice (meditation, yoga nidra, etc) led by Dr. g
30 minutes of quiet time to write
30 minutes to share in small group & large group discussion on connection with uncertainty
