A 2-Day Poetry & Yoga Workshop
Thursday & Friday, June 4 & 5, 6-8:30 PM
If your cursor has been blinking in judgment for weeks, it’s time to stop overthinking and start moving. This two-day workshop bridges the gap between the writer’s desk and the yoga mat, utilizing Kundalini practices to physically shake loose those stubborn creative cobwebs. You’ll engage in dynamic kriyas and rhythmic breathwork designed to shift stagnant energy and bypass the analytical mind's criticism. By aligning your physical vitality with your narrative intent, you can transform frustrating mental static into a clear, resonant frequency for your poetry and prose. Step away from the screen to breathe, stretch, and reclaim the effortless flow your writing deserves.
