Class Description

This is a class devoted to writing that is inspired by our connection to the soul. We’ll read various essays and texts that invite audiences to reach beyond the binary of secular and religious, to reflect on the sacred within and all around us, such as nature, ritual, and folklore. Whether you have experiences with faith, a complex or nuanced relationship with religion, or perhaps you're in the midst of de/reconstructing what spirituality means to you, this workshop is a reflective convening to illuminate your connection to spirituality. We will make use of guided reflective writing exercises, readings with analysis on form and content, and space to share your work. Readings consist of authors such as Robin Wall Kimmerer, Sasha Sagan, Sue Monk Kidd, Clarissa Pinkola Estés, and Peter Wohlleben.

Class Format

This class will take place using Zoom videoconferencing. About 15 minutes before your class is scheduled to begin, you'll receive an email from your instructor with a link to join the class meeting!
