Summer is a season that’s associated with sunshine and light, abundance and joy. Nature is in full leaf and adventure calls in the form of holidays, trips and time spent in nature.
This Summer depth writing workshop will be a chance for you to press pause on the busyness of life and reflect on the seasons and cycles of your self-experience through the symbolism of Summer and its associations with abundance, adventure, playfulness and joy through a series of guided depth writing prompts.

What to expect
Depth writing is a transformational creative practice grounded in Jungian psychology, creative writing & reflective journaling aimed at facilitating creativity, supporting self-discovery and expanding possibility. It’s a process-focussed approach to writing rather than a product-focussed one, which means there’s no need to worry about spelling and grammar and there will be no pressure to read anything out (although you can if you wish).
This Summer depth writing workshop will include guided timed writing exercises of between approximately five and fifteen minutes as well as the chance to reflect on the process & any insights arising from it in small group discussions.
Who is it for?
This workshop is for writers, creative practitioners, seekers & inner explorers who are on a journey of self-discovery and who are comfortable with diving deeper.
Community guidelines
Although depth writing is transformational, it’s not therapy, so you’ll be invited to:
Take responsibility for your own experience by working with the material at a level that feels right for you
Avoid over-disclosing any personal matter that is particularly private or painful
Practice CARE - Confidentiality, Attention, Respect & Empathy - with others.
Consider seeking outside support if anything particularly difficult comes up
Go in peace if the space is not serving you
