Wild With Words Retreat

Wild With Words (WWW) explores words as our common creative medium. WWW is a spiritual practice for individuals and groups of all ages with varied writing experiences. It is accessible, portable, playful, inexpensive, and easy to learn. WWW is an improvisational process that serves our wholeness. By tapping our intuition and imagination, it helps us to recognize the ongoing prompting of the holy in our ordinary days and the sound of our voices in response. It isn’t focused on product. WWW hones our attention, allows the leading of our pens, grounds us in the present, and delights us with surprise. Rev. Dr. Martha Brunell is a UCC pastor, spiritual director, retreat/workshop leader, and writer in Sycamore, Illinois. Her spiritual direction and retreat/workshop practice is called Heartland Listening. She blogs at heartlandlistening.wordpress.com. Martha has shared Wild With Words for over fifteen years with students, colleagues, spiritual seekers, people in recovery, community groups, those who love to write, and those who are afraid of writing. She joyfully listens with others as they encounter their creativity and spirituality.
