HOME or What is Belonging?

​Creative Writing & Yoga Workshop in Amsterdam

​Have you ever wondered: “What does home mean to me?”

​If this question resonates with you, then perhaps this is the right moment to pause. In that spirit, we invite you to a Creative Exploration Workshop through Words, Yoga (and Flowers) about belonging and finding your inner home.

​After a beautiful first edition of 2026 exploring belonging, we’re back for round two in April. This time, more intentionally, we bring movement into the exploration.

​More specifically, and step by step, through reflective writing and other exercises with @noacasarta and gentle yoga with @yoga_yatraa, we’ll explore belonging not only as something we experience with others, but also, more deeply, as something we cultivate within ourselves.

​As a natural result, movement, stillness, and guided prompts will create space to pause, reflect, and reconnect.

​• you enjoy writing, reflection, or creative expression
• you sometimes feel disconnected even when surrounded by people
• you are curious about slowing down and sharing meaningful conversations
• you want to meet others in a calm, thoughtful space

​Overall, and at its core, this workshop is an invitation to introspection, expression, and connection through various forms of art. At the same time, it is a safe and open space for those who want to explore meaningful themes using words, colors, movement and crafts.

​• a creative workshop dedicated to introspection
• reflective prompts that open new paths
• gentle yoga and mindful movement
• a safe and supportive space to connect with yourself and others

​Open-minded people who are curious to explore essential themes through creative means: whether it's writing, painting, collage, movement, or simple crafts. Whether you come alone or together with someone, you are welcome.

​Importantly, and reassuringly, previous experience in yoga, writing, or art is not needed. Instead, simply bring your curiosity and an open mind.

​During the workshop, and throughout the experience, we will work with:

• ​Words – creative writing exercises and personal expression
• ​Colors – drawing and visual techniques to express emotions
• ​Crafts – manual activities that help anchor us in the present moment and support introspection. This can include flowers or other natural elements.
• ​Movement – a gentle yoga practice that invites us to slow down, connect with the body, and deepen our sense of inner belonging
