Retreat Workshop

Retreat Journal Workshop

I’ve entered the waters of creative journaling with the True North Arts Personal Retreats Online Workshop. I have to admit I’m VERY bad at finding time for myself. Week one of the workshop described the idea of Cultivating Awareness. One of the journaling exercises asked the question: “What I most yearn for in a retreat right now is…” I yearn for Perspective, the ability to take my anxious thoughts captive, and the knowledge to see where I begin and others end.

I loved this quote “And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to become a blossom.” — Anais Nin
