1. Begin with a simple personal ritual. A chant or prayer or a song u play.
2. Set up a calm writing space used only for this writing time.
3. Breathe deeply. Empty your mind. Address your inner core Voice. Your memory bank. Exit your conscious mind to access your subconscious soul.
4. Write fast. Don't judge, evaluate, or edit what you write.
5. Recognize, counter, quiet or collaborate with inner critical voices if they pop up.
6. Stay positive as you answer the prompts. This also
creates new neural pathways.
7. Write by hand in a notebook (preferably a notebook that you selected because it makes you smile) for 8-11 minutes every day. Same time, same place, every day. First thing in the morning (before the world wakes up) or last thing at night (after the world goes to sleep). Write as fast as you can in a stream of consciousness. Don’t worry about grammar, sense, plot. Write what haunts you. What worries you. What questionable or unwelcome fears or memories have come up during the day or night & if you can say why. This is you talking with yourself.
8. At some point to be determined by us together you will burn these pages. Your relationship & your fluency with fire is as important to this practice as that of writing with pen on paper. When you’re ready (some of you will feel ready as soon as you put the pen down & others will never feel ready to let go) at some point we will choose together you will burn most of these pages. In ritual fire. You will burn them into your genetic code. You will alchemize your words. With me.
