About this Event
Martha Beck and Elizabeth Gilbert are not only towering figures in the fields of creativity, healing, and spirituality, they are also best friends who inspire each other just as much as they inspire millions of readers and followers. This weekend-long workshop will provide a rare opportunity to study with both Marty and Liz together, as they share all they learned over the decades about the creative process. Participants will be led through a series of experiences and exercises designed to open the imagination, subdue fear and imposter syndrome, and allow inspiration to flow. This workshop is for everyone from professional “creatives” to those who are just looking for an inspiring re-set in their lives.
Readers of all ages and walks of life have drawn inspiration and empowerment from Elizabeth & Martha's books for years. Now these beloved authors dig deep into their own generative process to share her wisdom and unique perspective about creativity. With profound empathy and radiant generosity, they offer potent insights into the mysterious nature of inspiration. They ask us to embrace our curiosity and let go of needless suffering. They show us how to tackle what we most love, and how to face down what we most fear. They discuss the attitudes, approaches, and habits we need in order to live our most creative lives. Balancing between soulful spirituality and cheerful pragmatism, Gilbert & Beck encourage us to uncover the “strange jewels” that are hidden within each of us.
Whether you are looking to write a book, make art, find new ways to address challenges in our work, embark on a dream long deferred, or simply infuse our everyday lives with more mindfulness and passion, this weekend of Big Magic cracks open a world of wonder and joy.
