Kim Rosen, M.F.A., author of "Saved by a Poem: The Transformative Power of Words" (Hay House, 2009) has awakened listeners around the world to the power of poetry to heal and transform individuals and communities. She is a poet, spoken word artist, ritualist and teacher of inner work centering on the power of poetry as a pathway to radical authenticity and self-revelation. Founder of the Poetry Depths Mystery School, and Soul School, she is the co-creator of four CDs of poetry and music and her writing has been published in The Sun Magazine, O Magazine, and Spirituality and Health among others. In 2007 she spoke a poem to a group of Maasai girls in Kenya who had fled FGM and Early Childhood Marriage, and that moment became the seed of the Safe House Education (S.H.E.) Fund.

Kim Rosen: The Virtual Poetry Dive, with Music, Movement, Writing and Sharing
**PLEASE NOTE: REGISTRATION CLOSES AT MIDNIGHT EST MAY 7. REMEMBER TO CONVERT IF YOU ARE NOT ON EST.**
Join Kim for this adventure into the unexpected intimacy, connection and authenticity possible through the miracle of Zoom in alchemy with music, the poetry of the inner life, movement, writing, sharing — all held in a strong vessel of ceremony and shared intention…
This will be an immersion in poems, music, movement and silence designed to liberate the flow of your feelings and free your unique expression — through words, voice, body, sound and silence. In a ‘circle’ committed to authenticity, risk-taking and self-honesty, inhibitions fall and all aspects of being, from the darkest to the brightest, are welcomed.
The focus is on the soul’s unfoldment, rather than on poetry per se. Poetry is the language of intimacy with self and others. It can invite us to strip our masks and give naked voice to the deepest place within us.
The workshop begins with a meditation and opening ceremony. This is followed by a “Poetry Dive” which is a form Kim has created that moves from movement to an immersion in poems spoken by Kim with powerful music, designed to allow you to lie back in the shamanic medicine of word and rhythm and allow your inner life to rise to the surface. The experience continues with spontaneous writing. This is followed by optional sharing in the group.
There will be a 10 minute “go outside and breathe” break in the middle of the program.
Note about what this is not: This is not 3.5 hours entrained to your device. It is primarily an audio journey, that will intentionally disrupt your ‘screentime’, because the primary focus is deep listening within.
The Poetry Dive is free and if you’d like to make a donation by PayPal or check, THANK YOU!!
