– the Poetry of Presence
A One Day Workshop with Tanya Porter and Sue Reynolds
“Every moment contains a poem – if you haven’t found the poem you haven’t gone deeply enough into the moment” Ellen Bass
________________________________________
On May 28th, 2016 join therapeutic writing facilitator Sue Reynolds and the gifted yoga and meditation teacher Tanya Porter for a day of embodied presence and reflective writing.
A day for you to grow still, to refresh and renew in a beautiful environment.
Through the day we will experience the replenishment and nourishment of (very easy) yoga and meditation.
Then transitioning from the yin to a more yang state, we will move into reflection and expression of our experience through writing.
A day of deep stillness and profound personal presence to nurture you.
