COSMELLOWED WORKSHOPS

BOOK NOW

Meditation, Creative Writing and Self-Expression

8-week term split into two 4-week courses

Cosmellowed workshops are all about presence, creativity, self-expression and sharing. The dream is that through these experiences people will gain new technologies for wellbeing in a fun, unique and engaging fashion. While sharing ideas is a part of these workshops, the focus is on the practical application of such ideas in a safe and encouraging group environment. Through healthy relating and collaboration, we can learn so much about ourselves and life, and with these workshops, we aim to accommodate that process.

 

A Letter to Life

 

This workshop is all about presence, creativity, self-expression, working with others and understanding ourselves. The event will begin with a guided meditation to ground us in the present moment and cultivate a sense of ease and restfulness, followed by a series of exercises designed to get our creative juices flowing. These exercises emphasise group work, which involves performing writing activities together, and holding space for each other’s ideas and expression. In the final part of the workshop, participants will use their newly honed creative writing skills to write a personal letter to life and themselves. For those who wish to share, we will hold an acknowledgement circle in which people can read their letters out to the group.

 

What you will get out of this workshop:

 

  • A fun, unique experience that fuses mindfulness with creativity and group activities.
  • A greater sense of freedom when it comes to the acts of creating and expressing oneself.
  • An opportunity to create with, listen and be heard by others.
  • A greater sense of intimacy, honesty and vulnerability with oneself.
  • An opportunity to practise technologies for wellbeing, such as meditation and journaling.
