Writing into the Self Through the Chakras with Raychelle Heath
Writing into the Self Through the Chakras is a creative writing workshop merging chakra meditation and writing as a way to tap into the deeper parts of the self in order to bring their voices to the page. The workshop will explore the seven chakras through colors and mantras that will also serve as writing prompts. This workshop is suitable for anyone, whether you are curious about meditation or an advanced practitioner. Participants will need their favorite writing materials and a comfortable place to sit and chant. You may also want to have markers or color pencils. Join yoga and meditation guide, Raychelle Heath, on Monday, August 4th at 7 PM EST. This workshop will be recorded, and a link will be e-mailed to all ticket holders once the recording is available.*
