Come Back Home Through Writing

Did you know that you can truly feel at home in your own body, no matter what you've been through? Whether you consider yourself a writer or not, it is possible to take the details of your personal story, no matter how traumatic they may be, and write your way home to an unshakable, safe space for your soul to reside.

In this 21 Day Soul Writing Journey you will learn to show up as your own witness in a profound and practical way, combining the wisdom of your words with the wisdom of your body as you work through the detailed exercises.

This course will teach you to:

Transform old wounds through the power of language

Open your own innate creative expression

Find words where before you've been mute, and use those words to heal

Remember and recognize your innate wholeness and worth, despite any past challenges

Clear blocks that keep you from writing

Light the fire of writing in your life, even if you've never considered yourself a "writer" before

Connect to the wisdom of your inner voice as you work through healing exercises

Free your voice by completing playful writing exercises

Show up daily in a way that supports you, your writing and your self-care

Find peace in your own body despite living in an often chaotic world, through the power of your own words

No previous writing experience is necessary. The gifts of writing are open to all! This 21 day course is offered through the DailyOm website:

With Debora’s guidance, I continue to discern Life’s Meaning and Purpose

January 21, 2015

A theologian friend of mine once told me that we need to tell our story over and over again until we get it right. What he meant, of course, was that we wrestle with getting to the Truth of our stories, much as the biblical Jacob did with his Angel, until we find the meaning of our lives, the Calling that is uniquely ours to live.

What Writing the Prayer of Your Life offers is not only the experience of enhancing one’s skills in the art and practice of writing, but the distinctive opportunity to explore the profound and mysterious landscape of one’s inner resources in the process.

My participation in the course deepened and reinforced awareness of my need to attend more mindfully and purposefully to self care as a way of honoring the earthen vessel that shelters my Soul, maintaining and sustaining the balance in body, mind and spirit that nurtures a Right Relationship with the Spirit, and responding to my Call to write. Engaging in Debora’s adventurous writing exercises draws out one’s story in ways that honor, respect and celebrate the complexities and paradoxes of the quest for the More in life. Debora offers the opportunity to wrestle safely with ones Angels – and Demons! For reasons I cannot yet fully comprehend or understand, this course is essential for my Spiritual Journey and a unique opportunity to embrace and not avoid, devalue or diminish my call to attend to my Writing Voice. And so, with Debora’s guidance, I continue to discern Life’s Meaning and Purpose as I continue to Write the Prayer of My Life.
