About this Event

Verilujah: [ver-uh-LOO-yuh]

n. the praise that rises when we are in a state of raw, naked honesty, aligning with the vast mystery of life as it is instead of clinging to our story about how we think life is supposed to be

from Latin verus (true) + hallelujah, song of praise

Credit and thanks to poet Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer for creating four unique words for praise in her book, The Unfolding.

In this writing group, we will drop the effort to write something "good" and will aim instead to write something true. What stories will come to the surface ready to be told, as you align with the vast mystery of life? All forms of writing are welcome, including not writing, as thinking and listening are crucial parts of writing, too. Humor, tears, the mundane and more...all are welcome. Nothing is too big or small.

In this 1.5 hour workshop, we will write together two times, to two different prompts. Participants are free to ignore the prompts and write what they want instead. We will end with time to share one of the pieces and receive positive feedback. Sharing is always optional.

Sundays, January 5, 12, 19 & 26

Cost: $125

This group will continue in February and March. Pay by the month.
