Finding Our Center in Shifting Sands: A Reflective Writing Workshop

Online

Join us online for this special workshop opportunity. In uncertain times, we need spaces to process our grief, concerns, and fears—while also nurturing resilience and hope. Finding Our Center in Shifting Sands is a guided expressive writing workshop that Perlie Davis and Cindy Appleby have designed as an opportunity for those seeking connection and emotional grounding in today’s turbulent political climate. Through reflective journaling, poetry, and shared conversation, we will honor our feelings, deepen self-awareness, and create a supportive space for healing. While this workshop is not about problem-solving, it offers an opportunity to find strength in the community. Join us in holding space for both our struggles and our capacity for transformation. The Zoom link and password is provided in registration confirmation. Register

Drop-In Self Awareness

Drop-In Self-Awareness

Room 209

When we observe ourselves feeling and reacting from unsettling emotions like anger, sadness, and fear, the self awareness practice helps us investigate so we can release stories and patterns that no longer serve our wellbeing and so we can embrace ourselves and others with more compassion and grace. If you want to learn more about the self awareness practice, please drop in and observe 2 members of the Common Thread Community do this practice together. No prior knowledge or experience is required and everyone is invited and welcome. We will meet in Room 209. Feel free to bring your lunch/snack if desired.
