In this hour-long event, Mark introduces Writing to Awaken as a time-honored path of insight, healing, and self-realization. You will be guided through a series of personal writing exercises designed to make your shadow conscious, to reveal the power in your hidden parts. We frequently judge, deny, suppress, and hide those aspects of ourselves that are the most original and unique. As Carl Jung put it, “We do not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the shadow conscious.” This workshop will help you explore your secret places, give language to hidden thoughts and feelings, and move toward a more awakened life. Mark teaches, “When you tell the truth, your story changes. When your story changes, your life is transformed.” Writing is an unsurpassed tool for personal growth, as you will learn in this thought-provoking hour.

In this workshop, you will:
Discover the power of expressive writing as a proven tool for insight and healing
Explore key aspects of your personal shadow and why they have been suppressed
Witness the power latent in your shadow material when you make it conscious
Learn to integrate those parts of yourself you’ve pushed into the shadow
Practice un-censoring your thoughts and feelings for the sake of being truthful
