What is Seeding Soul Stories?

All levels are welcome. Absolutely no prior writing experience is necessary to get something out of this program. The program is designed for anyone who wants to dive into creative expression through writing. As long as you have a willingness to write, you are good to go. 

Sharing is always optional, so you will never have to share your writing. Although all of the writing in this program occurs in session, we always offer the option of passing or just talking about what you write. It's a safe space to explore writing in a way that works for you.

If you're willing to acknowledge a desire to track down untold stories, stories from your past, aspects of your unlived life, or dreams of your deepest longing, you'll find stories. This is a highly creative and safe container. Most Seeding Soul Story participants are genuinely surprised by how much emerges. 

Over the course of 5 weeks, we'll explore soul through writing - and writing through soul. Together with a small group of fellow seekers, we will tap the deepest roots of your soul's longing for self-expression. Seeding Soul Stories is a supportive, playful, creative and experiential writing community for discovering your stories. It will change you.

This is our fourth year leading Seeding Soul Stories together. Using our diverse backgrounds as leaders and our shared understanding of the psyche's home in the imagination, we offer a safe space and creative environment for tapping material that wants...and perhaps needs to emerge.
