Mindful Story Circle

Start date: 1st December 2025

What if reading beautiful stories could show you how to develop authentic voice, emotional truth, and compassionate storytelling?

The Mindful Story Circle is an invitation into something deeper than a typical book club or writing workshop. This is about communion - with beautiful words, with each other, and with the wisdom that emerges when we approach literature as a healing practice.

A Year of Mindful Writing

Start date: 5th January 2026

This transformative year-long journey combines deep writing craft with mindfulness practices and ancient wisdoms, helping you create stories that matter while deepening your relationship with your writing and storytelling. Learn to write from a place of presence, compassion, and authentic connection.

Quantum Flash

Start date: 2nd February 2026

Quantum Flash is for writers ready to experiment with narrative structures inspired by science and spirituality. Over six fun and inspiring weeks, we'll use concepts from quantum mechanics, consciousness research, and ancient wisdom traditions as creative inspiration for pushing flash fiction into uncharted territory.

Compassionate Storytelling

Start date: 16th March 2026

In a world that feels increasingly divided, stories have the power to build bridges across difference, create understanding between opposing viewpoints, and remind us of our shared humanity. This six-week workshop will guide you to write with true compassion whether you're crafting fiction, exploring memoir, or writing your present-moment life.

The Mindful Memoir Course

Start date: TBC

Memoir is more than just a recounting of the past — it's a creative act that shapes memory into meaning. This six-week, self-paced course explores memoir as an art form grounded in mindfulness. In-depth lessons, reflective writing prompts, and compassionate guidance, will show you to tell your story with honesty, emotional resonance, and literary craft.
