   Zen Pen: A Writing, Being & Meditation Retreat

   We can make our minds so like still water that beings gather about us to see
   their own images, and so live for a moment with a clearer, perhaps even with
   a fiercer life because of our silence. (Yeats)
   Zen (Chinese chán ‘quietude’) invites us to be present, to live and write
   simply.
   Pen (Latin penna ‘feather’) refers to both practicing the art of writing and to
   the implement we use. It also invites us to play in a safe place – as in playpen.
   Time to write, walk, circle the garden, sit amidst blue
   glass, breathe and be….
   What do writing, being and breath share in
   common? They all bring alive and expand the
   present moment. They invoke a conversation with
   ourselves and others. An exchange of energies.
   Writing is a skill drawn from attention, presence and
   openness – an organic process rather than a talent.
   On this retreat in a sacred space (Temenos) discover
   the writer inside you. We explore our innate creativity
   and imagination as we connect writing to
   mindfulness and bodyfulness
