Body and Soul: Writing Your Way Home - Women’s Writing Retreat


Body and Soul: Writing Your Way Home” with Amy-Lyles Wilson, M.A., M.T.S. www.amylyleswilson.com

and Eboni Webb, Psy.D., HSP

Hone your inner voice and reconnect with your body through the art of writing. Our transformative women’s retreat offers a compassionate, nurturing space for self-expression, growth, and empowerment.

Join us as we embark on a journey of deep self-discovery, using the written word to explore both the body and the soul. Through guided writing exercises, mindfulness practices, and gentle movement, you’ll cultivate a deeper connection with your inner truth and rediscover the power of your own voice.

This retreat isn’t just about writing - it’s about awakening the stories held within, examining the past, and embracing your unique path forward. Together, we will explore:

  • Writing as a Tool for Healing: Release old wounds, express your desires, and uncover hidden strengths.

  • Body Awareness: Through simple movement and body-based exercises, experience the profound connection between your physical form and your creative spirit.

  • Mindful Expression: Learn to write with intention, letting your words reflect the true essence of who you are.

Whether you’re an experienced writer or a complete beginner, this retreat will help you deepen your relationship with both your voice and your body in a way that can bring clarity, joy and understanding.

Step away from the noise of everyday life to nourish your soul, honor your body, and let your words flow freely toward the story only you can tell.
