Held March 7-9, 2008
Creative writing, yoga and meditation held in the serene setting of Bluewater Farm,
a beautifully restored lakeside Lodge on Bradley Lake in Andover, New Hampshire.
What participants had to say:
"This was a fabulous way to reconnect with myself and find new connections, too. I look forward to remembering my experiences as a way to inspire my daily life."
"As a beginning writer, I felt very welcome and accepted."
"I will never be able to do yoga again without thinking about my writing and vice versa!"
"The only thing to make it better would be to move the entire operation to my home town in Maine."
"I loved the writing exercises, they were fun, playful, yet they did their job and I was immediately jumpstarted."
Excerpt from Yoga and Writing Exercise March 8, 2008
by Sally Hirsch-Dickenson
"I wanted to get my heart back and give it right this time. Too late, though. Too many pieces, too widely scattered, too cheaply offered, too dearly lost. And so I’d left myself only to breathe, ticking my breaths away one at a time wondering how many I had left in this place, when I was going to leave, and wondering why I hadn’t already. I needed to pull myself back into some sort of wholeness but I’d lost the ability to see the contours of what I thought I was or had been. I’d managed somehow to test myself and my limits by blowing through them and diving past them only to realize too late that I lived by those rules for a reason so as not to lose sight of myself."
