A reflective writing workshop to connect with your heart's deepest guidance
About this Event

In this playful and light-hearted session, we’ll explore a mix of creative and surprising writing prompts designed to spark imagination and bring a sense of fun to the page. Sometimes the most interesting writing happens when we let go of expectations and simply follow our curiosity.

In this workshop, you will:

  • Discover how easy it can be to begin writing
  • Try something unexpected and creative on the page
  • Play with prompts that spark curiosity and imagination
  • Enjoy the freedom of writing without overthinking

As always, our gatherings offer a welcoming space to slow down, explore your thoughts on paper, and connect with others who enjoy reflection and writing.

Whether you journal regularly or are simply curious to try it, you are warmly invited to join us.

What to expect:

  • Thoughtful and imaginative journaling prompts
  • A warm, welcoming space and supportive writers around you
  • Time to reconnect with yourself through writing, stillness, and presence

Just bring a notebook, a pen, and a bit of curiosity.

Facilitated by:

Janine Grossmann and Laura Paradise – two certified coaches who believe in the power of words, self-trust, and the heart’s quiet guidance.
