7 Minute Anchoring Meditation by Cynthia Berg

It’s September and I have that September feeling – memories of the flutter of returning to school and the dangers of being seen, being myself without all the disguises. Write-along with me using a line from a Cecilia Woloch poem and let’s make this month a time of embracing ALL of our bits – the vices, the worries, the secrets, the pleasures.

This month, I have something really special for us. I bring you an interview with the amazing Laurie Wagner, creator of 27 Powers and Wild Writing. We gabbed about Wild Writing, what’s scary about it, what’s healing and lifechanging about it. Laurie brings a favorite poem to inspire our writing this month and shares a bit about what it takes to do creative work. After the interview, I lead us in a timed ‘write-along’ to the piece Laurie brought for us. Here we go…
