An unspoken promise of ‘Mother’

Gentle explorations into the idea of an unspoken promise around the role of mother. What society may anticipate a mother to be. What we ‘expect’ from mothers and if you identify as mother, from self. We will engage with the unspoken assumptions and expectations for this role largely via poem and own writing created on the day. Returning by popular enquiry

A morning writing on belonging.

An invitation to explore the fundamental need as well as the exquisite desires to belong. My own nomadic experiences through the extended family in childhood and life in different continents as an adult have intrigued me and my own sense of belonging. We will open with a simple body awareness to step into an embodied experience of writing. We will use poems, aspects of the wild world as well as recollections of family dynamics around the table (or similar if this didn’t play a role). A chance to gently explore our experiences of belonging, help us into a reflective process and to create narratives in various forms. Small group activities to share the process or the writing.
