Playing with Poetry: A Creative Practice

Sunday June 7 | 9:00–10:30am
at Kaya Holistic
6522 N 16th Street Phoenix 85016

Step into a space of curiosity, creativity, and self-expression.
Playing with Poetry is a lighthearted, low-pressure workshop designed to help you explore your inner muse.

Through prompts and creative exercises, we’ll experiment with language and imagery, and let the words surprise us!

Creative writing and poetry can become a somatic practice when we release the “right way to write”. When we aren’t preoccupied with proper grammar or the perfect sentence formation, we open ourselves to a stream of consciousness type of writing. We allow language to emerge from embodied experience. From feeling. We allow openings to appear in the spaces in between. We begin writing through the body.

Poetry, in particular, naturally mirrors the nervous system.
Its pauses reflect breath.
Its rhythm echoes heartbeat, contraction, expansion, grief, longing, pleasure, memory, and release.

Sometimes the body knows the cadence before the mind understands the story.
When approached this way, writing becomes less about being perfect and more about being real.

Bring your journal, favorite pen, and an open mind.
Whether you already love poetry or feel unsure where to begin, this workshop offers a welcoming environment to write, reflect, and play.

Come as you are. No experience needed.
