A Meditative Approach to Your Creative Writing //A Creative Approach to Your Meditation Practice
Welcome! And thank you for reading. I hope the weekly prompts will be a source of inspiration as you create your own path of personal development!

Hand-bound workbooks* with original artwork, and inexpensive paperback facsimiles are available via Mad Orphan Lit.
*An important disclaimer and explanation: therapeutic writing – like the writing prompts offered here – is not therapy. There is no shrink, no guru, no pathfinder, no wise crone. The questions and the writing process can have a therapeutic effect on people. The growth process (if there is one) is the result of your own work/thoughts/desires. If you find yourself in a dark and painful place, please stop writing immediately and seek professional help!

Where Does the Heart Live
Look the wise say
hearts are buried deep within
but it’s not by turning inward
that I find its steady beat
I feel my heart’s thrum all ‘round
when running in the forest dark
or admiring the vistas
on cliff above the sea
The earth is where my heart lives
No! – Tis the earth, the sea, the sky
I know that when I fall asleep
To the very stars does my heart fly
I haven’t answered Ren’s question
Of where my heart does abide
But if you pause to listen
You’ll hear it beat far and wide

Stunning and introspective challenge this week Ren! I shall mull ideas over – and let them cook in the creative oven until they grab my attention like a blaring kitchen timer and declare themselves done! Looking forward to sharing the feast here…
