Let’s face it, finding something (a practice, a tool?) that will help you experience in-the-moment relief, can be really hard. Who has the time? Or the headspace? Especially now.

We get that.

You hear about things like meditation and journaling, right? You hear how helpful they can be. And it’s true; they are.

But they can also feel hard or weighed down with “a giant hairball of should” as the brilliant Angel Sullivan says.

What if you have tried meditation and not had the results you wanted?

If you’re like me, in your head you’re making to-do lists, having arguments, daydreaming a new creative project, all to the soundtrack of that morning’s earworm.

What if you’ve tried journaling but staring into the face of blank pages is just [[shudder]]?

For years I thought the only way to do journaling “right” was writing every day, full sentences, perfect grammar, as if Mrs. Griswold was going to swoop in from her perch in my 4th grade classroom and use her red pencil. [[more shudder]]

That’s what Angel and I will be sharing with you in this virtual fire circle.

• how to meditate without the “giant hairball of should” so it’s a relief-inspiring, doable, useful tool.
• how to use writing as a quietly freeing, beautiful, nourishing support. A way that you can understand what’s going on inside of you and integrate those insights.

You should come if any of these words apply to you:

• overwhelmed
• worried
• too busy doing (fill in the thing that seems more important than you, but really isn’t)
• languishing
• salty
• Eeyore (when you’re usually more a Piglet, Pooh, or Tigger)
