Know Thyself & The Power of the Pen
As we begin warming up this space, here we connect as an intersection of story, soul, magic, and personal growth towards making what matters, real through soul.
Here you’ll find writing prompts I practice myself. They come from lived experience, not generated content.
Here is a teaser prompt of what’s to come:
Prompt 01: “Where Have You Been?”
Intention: meet yourself honestly, so you can meet yourself now.
1) Arrive (30–60 sec)
Close your eyes. Breathe. If writing feels sticky, shake it out: hands, face, shoulders, jaw. Let the body unlock the page.
2) The Voices (1–2 min)
Notice who’s speaking and who’s listening.
- Me (the present narrator)
- Myself (the witness / wise one)
- I (the felt self in the story)
3) First Write — 10 minutes (no stopping)
Prompt: “Where have you been?”
Let the pen lead. Don’t edit. Describe scenes, seasons, textures, choices, detours. Name the struggle; name the spark.
4) Read. Then Refine — 5 minutes
Circle 3–5 images or sentences that throb with truth. Rewrite the piece around them. Tighter. Truer.
5) The Fine Cut — 2 minutes
Add details the camera would see: light, sound, scent, an object. Keep only what serves the heartbeat.
6) Close the Loop (1 minute)
One final line: “Because of where I’ve been, I now know…”
Sign it with today’s date. That’s your marker.
Optional Depth Prompts:
- Which part of me asked the question, and which part answered? What is my relationship to them?
- What did I avoid telling? Why?
- Where do I still carry the weather of that season in my body?
Ritual Notes:
- If stuck: shake again. Write one ugly sentence to break the seal.
- If overwhelmed: switch to lists for 60 seconds, then return to sentences.
- If drifting: set a timer and keep the pen moving.
Welcome home 🤍✨
Ps: Save the date for 11.11 as our very first meet up!
