What we’re about

The root of creativity lies in the murky waters of deep imagination. Through journaling and meditation, we explore the shy song within—the quiet impulse that wants to emerge.

A great work, and life, is based on a connection with the creator’s inner world. It grows out of still and musing meditation. It draws from the pre-verbal, the half-understood, the subconscious. There is a wisdom inside each of us that often cannot be put into words but, with practice, can be used to guide and shape our lives and our work. It is that which is holy inside us.

  • There are moments in a life, and moments in a day, when we see beyond the usual and glimpse something more real—an inner brightness, a sudden clarity. In those rare instants, a private song begins to rise within us. It surprises us. It lifts us. We want to stay with it, to hear it fully.
    - Robert Henri, The Art Spirit

And yet, as Robert Henri goes on to say in The Art Spirit, the song is delicate. The intellect rushes in, analyzes, interrupts. The inner music retreats. We return to the ordinary. But that fleeting song is the very heart of creative life.

In this group, we practice staying close to it—nurturing it through stillness, writing, and gentle attention. We gather not to perfect anything, but to explore the inner landscape from which true expression arises.

If you feel drawn to creativity as a form of inquiry, healing, or discovery—if you long to reconnect with the quiet imaginative pulse beneath your days—you are welcome here.
