COMING HOME TO ME: A JOURNALING WORKSHOP
with New York Times best-selling writer & fifty-year journal keeper Linda Lowery
Camp Bluebird Retreat for Cancer Survivors
Bonclarken Conference Center – Flat Rock, NC
CAMP BLUEBIRD is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year in the colorful mountains of western North Carolina. Sponsored by Mission Hospital’s Cancer Program, this retreat is for anyone who is 18 years or older with a past or current diagnosis of cancer. At Camp Bluebird, you feel you’ve been given permission to enjoy life again and not let cancer consume your every thought. It is a safe place to share your hopes and fears with others who understand what you are going through.
JOURNALING is a beautiful practice that awakens our intuitive wisdom and welcomes us home to our deepest selves. When life gets messy, it's a comforting pathway to new possibilities and unexpected revelations. There's no right or wrong way to journal, but there are helpful tips to make the practice easier or more effective. In this workshop, Linda introduces you to some of her favorite journaling approaches: Unloading, Drifting, and Deep Soul Diving. Bring pen and notebook/paper--we'll be doing some private, restorative writing in a warm community environment.
