Refuge Writing Lab

Hypnosis + Writing + Community

Thursdays 8pm CST // February 5, 2026 — March 19, 2026

Six weeks to open new neural pathways and explore the inner realms where imagination, intuition, and story take shape.

  • part i - I lead a hypnosis/somatic grounding session intentionally crafted to calm your nervous system and bypass your inner critic

  • part ii - write from the source — your subconscious / imagination from a parasympathetic, connected state

  • part iii - share your work and reflections with a small, supportive group, anchoring and affirming your experience

Fiction, nonfiction, song, and poetry welcome.

Spaces are limited to ensure a safe and supportive environment. Applications are not to screen for merit, credibility, or skill, but for intention.

  • Whether you’re a professional writer or you simply want to develop a more intentional journaling practice, this lab is for participants who want to develop a healthier relationship to their writing practice while spending time in a supportive community.

  • Hypnosis is a slightly altered state of consciousness from which we are

    • bypassing the inner critic

    • in connection with our subconscious mind

    • have access to rich symbology and meaning

    • physically relaxed

    • receptive to positive healing suggestions

    By utilizing intentionally crafted hypnosis sessions to access a flow state, we are also able to reach a better understanding of what is holding us back creatively and how to reframe/move through obstacles so that we can reclaim our creative practice and write from the heart.

  • Writing is a powerful tool for self-reflection, healing, and connection. It has been a refuge for me, but it can be an isolating practice. My intention with Refuge is to build a space where creative people can share their writing practice in ways that are beneficial to their own spiritual development and craft while building relationships and passing inspiration to one another, like creating a shared dreamspace.
