Poetry, Inspiration, Writing
The practice of poetry can help us better understand our own heart, health, and callings in life. At the same time, the sheer practice of making something out of words can bring us more alive, giving us greater meaning, energy, and even joy in the process. Come explore—through writing in community, reading our words (always optional), and sharing our discoveries—how writing and reading poetry can help you craft a practice that brings you deeper into your own healing and resilience.
