Et si écrire devenait une manière de reprendre possession de soi ? Le Collectif Littéraire Anémone vous invite à un atelier d’écriture introspective autour du journal intime, dans l’atmosphère chaleureuse du Café Sapiens. À travers des exercices sensoriels, des temps d’écriture guidés et des échanges autour de grandes figures de l’écriture intime, nous explorerons ensemble comment les mots peuvent apaiser le tumulte intérieur, clarifier les pensées et ouvrir un espace de respiration dans nos vies saturées. Un moment pour ralentir. Observer. Ressentir. Écrire. Aucune expérience littéraire n’est nécessaire, seulement l’envie de se rencontrer autrement à travers l’écriture. Une F.A.Q est disponible en fin de description ! 📍 Café Sapiens, Paris 12e 🗓 Dimanche 7 juin 2026 à 16h ☕ Participation : une consommation ⚠️ Places limitées Descriptif de l'atelier et F.A.Q : | Dois-je posséder un journal intime pour participer à cet atelier ? | | ------------------------------------------------------------------ | | Sois rassurée, ma très chère anémone, cet atelier est ouvert à ceux qui cherchent à découvrir la pratique mais aussi aux adeptes du journaling. Il ne faut pas forcément avoir de journal intime pour y participer, ni forcément le prendre avec soi. | | Que dois-je apporter à l’atelier ? | | Simplement un stylo et une âme. Nous vous fournirons tout le matériel nécessaire pour cette immersion dans le journaling et l’introspection. | | Qu’allons nous faire, exactement ? | | Pour cet atelier, nous vous proposons des exercices qui adressent trois plans de stimulations: | | •Un plan méditatif et sensoriel, avec l’écoute de votre corps et la mise à l’écrit de vos sens. | | •Un plan intellectuel et culturel, avec la découverte d’[auteur.ice](http://auteur.ice/).s et de figures de la littérature autobiographique. | | •Un plan introspectif et émotionnel, avec l’utilisation de l’écriture pour adresser les pensées intrusives et prendre du recul sur une situation. | | Devrons-nous partager nos écrits lors de cet atelier ? | | Non, non et non. Cet atelier repose sur la souveraineté émotionnelle dans l’écriture. Il encourage l’autovalidation de ses émotions. Ce que vous écrivez est strictement personnel et intime. | | Toutefois, toute démarche de partage, si elle est ancrée dans une recherche du bien être, est encouragée. | | Qu’est ce que cet atelier m’apportera en plus de cette immersion sur le journaling ? | | Lors de cet atelier, vous aurez la possibilité d’échanger avec les [auteur.ice](http://auteur.ice/).s du Collectif Littéraire Anémone, des voies émergentes unies par l’écriture de leur propre vécu. Retrouvez nos travaux [ici](https://collectif-litteraire-anemone.squarespace.com/revue). | | De plus, vous rencontrerez d’autres [amoureux.ses](http://amoureux.ses/) et [curieux.ses](http://curieux.ses/) de l’écriture introspective, et vous ferez des rencontres stimulantes créativement et émotionnellement. | | Quelle est la participation à cet atelier ? | | Le collectif littéraire Anémone est anticapitaliste et non lucratif. L’atelier est gratuit. Toutefois, pour s’assurer du respect de notre collaboration avec le Café Sapiens, chaque participant devra consommer sur place. | | Comment soutenir les travaux des [auteur.ice](http://auteur.ice/).s du Collectif ? | | Inscrivez-vous à la revue Anémone [ici,](https://collectif-litteraire-anemone.squarespace.com/newsletter) et découvrez les écrits intimes de nos [auteur.ices](http://auteur.ices/). | | Pour découvrir nos actualités, suivez notre compte instagram [ici.](https://www.instagram.com/collectiflitteraireanemone/) |

Inspiration comes in many forms. Still life paintings are just one of the lasting art forms that inspire us to learn, stretch our imaginations and create something unique. Artists have been capturing still life scenes since the Renaissance. In the 1600s, Dutch and Flemish artists created timeless images of flowers, tables clad with drooping table cloths and pitchers of cold water, wine bottles, fruit and even musical instruments to tell a story. Create a beautiful fresh floral arrangement to use in this workshop. Use simple set ups, props such as fruits, wine and other Dutch inspired items as part of our still life photography creation. Learn a basic still life layout, use of lighting and capturing style using your own DSLR camera or cell phone camera! Take home your floral creation, as well as photos and new knowledge to create your own piece of art! Enjoy wine and other refreshments as we work. What To Expect The flower arranging will be the first hour of this workshop. Working with flowers can be messy, so make sure to wear something you won’t mind getting a little dirty. We will follow this with the hands-on photography part of the class with opportunities to create different scenes and sets throughout the 2 hours. What Should I Bring? For the flower arrangement, you don’t need to bring anything out of the ordinary with you - we provide the flowers, vases, and tools you will need to create your arrangement. For the Photo session bring your DSLR or cell phone! We will provide props, backdrops, lighting and some inspiration! Our capacity is limited to 8 Students

10:00 AM - Meet & Create - Depending on the weather we will do a walk about for nature/outdoor photography and content creation. 12noon - Lunch + Networking We’ll head to a local restaurant for lunch and continued networking and conversation.

**Our Meetup is off to another hiking adventure! Mt Kilimanjaro, as the tallest mountain in Africa, is included in the 7 Summits of the world.** **It is a bucket-list item for all hard-core hikers and mountain lovers.** We did this trek with Meetup in the summer of 2024 and it was a true experience of a lifetime (see photos below) Let's get to some numbers. It is 5,895m/19,340ft BUT . . . our starting elevation for the trek is 3795m/12541ft As such elevation gain is 2100m/6799ft To compare Everest Base Camp trek, is about 2754m/9035ft elevation change. And Mt Whitney is about 1828m/6000ft elevation change. The key to being able to succeed in this endeavor lays in the route and the support system. We are taking the Lemosho Route via the Northern Circuit. The Northern Circuit route is the longest and newest of the seven established Kilimanjaro routes. It's one of the best routes because it has the best acclimatization profile. This results in one of the highest summit success rates. Add to that stunning views, and comparatively relaxed pace. It is also much less crowded than the other Kilimanjaro routes. As far as our support system: We will be accompanied by experienced guides, porters and cooks. They are certified, ensuring our safety and comfort. Porters will carry our gear. We will have a high ratio of guides to hikers. Our guides will go our pace and support each and everyone of us, regardless of fitness level and pace. In other words...you go your own speed and we all get there safe. More about our trek/trip. As with all our international trips, we picked the best season/time of year to go for weather and wildlife. Lemosho and Northern Circuit is a scenically spectacular and varied route. At the lower elevations it has an abundance of wildlife such as elephant, buffalo, eland and lion which come over to forage during dry season. **Each of our trips is personally crafted to offer the best places and best use of time.** *But I don't have the needed gear?!* You don't need much more than the standard trekker's equipment. We will provide you with a list of what is already included and what can be rented there. *Does this include food?* All meals on the trek potion are included and a cook travels with us! *What is lodging like?* We are sleeping in new and comfortable tents (carried during the day by porters) *I am new at this.* That's OK. We do plenty of prep Zooms before we depart. And in California we have a number of local outdoor day or weekend outings you can test out with us. *How dangerous is this? What if I get sick or hurt?* We will be walking on an established, well used trail the entire time. **Our trip INCLUDES emergency insurance.** We are also Certified Wilderness First Responders and our guides are members of (AMREF) Flying Doctor. **Plain and simple, safety is our primary goal.** *How much does this cost?* **Kilimanjaro Mountain Trek $3950 per person, double occupancy. Land only (airfare not included). Solo supplement $600** Trip Cost includes: \- 9 nights accommodation \- 3 meals everyday on the trek \- All Fees & Entrances and Taxes \- Camping equipment such as tents\, tables\, chairs\. \- Lead Guide\, Assistant Guides\, Porters and Cook *RSVP to this event shows your interest, but does not hold your space.* ***The only way to secure your spot for this trip is a $300 deposit:*** ***[CLICK HERE FOR SECURE DEPOSIT LINK](https://www.paypal.com/instantcommerce/checkout/8P9NUAVQM8UEN)*** *Deposit is refundable up to 90 days before the departure (less PayPal fees).* *IF you need an airfare quote,* [Click here to message Anna](https://secure.meetup.com/messages/?new_convo=true&member_id=131297062) For more information about this or any of our other international events, fill out this form: **[INTERNATIONAL MEETUPS INFO REQUEST](https://forms.gle/cQdqYw74gAYqphXX8)** To see pictures from our Kilimanjaro adventure in 2024 [CLICK HERE](https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipPkfkUp6sEZVQ-xse1di_K19d1QVmSb5KOLeIjynRoWGv_XFLXI8wBfT61XxAHavg?key=U2tKajBuOGRiZkxBOUtTUG1GbUVRVmlDaERCeG5n) We do a monthly Q & A Zoom: Meet others attending, be social, or come and get any questions answered.
