The gift of space

The gift of space.

It's something we rarely do in our busy / hectic / fast paced / more is more / get it done / make it happen / now and forever - lives.

But the ability to just focus, go deep, and see what emerges brings such a wondrous feeling of freedom and inspiration!

Last week on my book writing retreat, I had all of this and more. With my partners in crime Nina Christian and Alex Hagan - we rode the waves of seeing what would consciously and unconsciously surface, with the discipline of the committed.

From the calm intensity of floating in flow. To the days when it felt the tides were holding us down - we dived head first every day into the cresting peaks and breaking waves while making the most of our inner worlds.

But then when we emerged (thousands of words later), we enjoyed incredible food, companionship and the serenity of nature. 

Writing is such a wonderful exploration of what is within, that we don't even know is there. Sharing this with like minded friends in a beautiful place was food for the soul.

For anyone who is wondering if they are ready for some soul inspiring space - which can be work and play - my experience says yes!

I can't wait to share with you my new book: I'm 50,000 words in, with about 20,000 to go!
