Wholeness of Selfhood

Nicola Mary Christensen-Johnson

Light & Hiding

The Art of Voicing from the Heart

An Online Workshop

Saturday 16 December 2023

Be shy in the face of light

In December we come to the end of our yearlong uncovering of the mysticism of inditing, the art of voicing from the heart.

We have become dazzling artists painting, singing and writing of the splendours of life and our miraculous presence in this world both broken and whole, fragmented and unified, willing participants and alert witnesses of the extraordinary ordinary odyssey with wholeness to become fully human.

We walk on the pastures of wonder embraced and cradled by the qualities of hope and despair as we learn

  • to bring together our loving presence and our escapades into dissociation
  • to balance our moments of helplessness with our blasts of resourcefulness
  • to walk in peace and with fear who has become our faithful friend
  • to be uplifted by joy and consoled by melancholy
  • to contend with our merciful anger and our unconditional availability for the transformative journey through life

 

To celebrate our journey together we will settle down together under the starry night of mid-winter and allow the stars to pour their healing light on us.

We will graciously receive the light and love of the world and walk into the new year ready to speak the good matter that dwells in our inditing heart and to freely give away the qualities pulsing in our heart connected to the One heart of all humanity.

My Heart Is Inditing

The purpose of the workshop is threefold:

  1. Uncovering the artform based on written language which enables us to bring the exquisite invisible into a precious and cherished visible form
  2. Developing our capacities for voicing the truths that dwell in our heart
  3. Initiating an experience of inhabiting and dwelling in the imaginal realm so as to unleash the powerful creativity populating our heart

 

There are three parts to the workshop.

  1. The first is a sequence of words and music taking us on a transformative voyage of discovery
  2. The second is a guided writing practice following the waves of consciousness unfolding
  3. The third is a time of sharing, not about what might have been produced – and is usually largely work in progress – rather a sharing around the experience of being with others in a creative container dedicated to written language
