About the Event

Does your writing or creative expression sometimes have less energy and juice than you would like it to? When each of your Circuits of Emotion and Motivation is clear and flowing, they provide you with the fuel and self-knowledge needed to make your writing clear and powerful. Join Sarah Peyton to explore the circuits, what blocks them, how to clear the blocks, and how to enjoy your own emotional strength.

Experience what’s possible when you explore and create within a resonant and welcoming space that honors the uniqueness of your truth and your voice in this 7-session series dedicated to creative writing and exploration.

Who Is This Course For?

For writers, explorers and creatives looking for a resonant space in which to support their written expression.

What to Expect?

Join Sarah Peyton in a space that creates room for the flow from thought into expression, support and resonant feedback, all in service of your creativity and more fluid expression.

In each 80-minute class, we will:

  • Begin with a free writing period
  • Explore a relational neuroscience concept connected to the 8 circuits of emotion and motivation and how they impact the ability to express and tell our truth.
  • Offer a resonance exercise or demonstration to support the movement toward free expression
  • Continue with a second free writing period
  • and create space for sharing and resonant responses to each other’s work

Each week, Sarah will teach about the connection between the different circuits of emotion and motivation and how they impact free expression and provide prompts to support your creativity in being fueled and free-flowing.  Explore the circuits, what blocks them, how to clear the blocks, and how to enjoy your own emotional strength.

  • May 31: Intro to the Circuits: SEEKING as the Foundation
  • June 14: Alarmed aloneness and Self-warmth: CARE and PANIC/GRIEF
  • June 21: Being afraid to write: clearing FEAR
  • June 28: Harnessing life energy: reclaiming RAGE
  • July 12: Stopping violation: working with DISGUST
  • July 19: Celebrating the self: SEXUALITY/EMERGENCE
  • July 26: Writing with Joy: Inviting PLAY

The classes will be recorded for participants in many time zones

This Course Includes Resonant Support

Get assistant support during classes – experience resonant support from experienced practitioners when you need it during class times.  Often, this work can have unexpected depth and touch on deeply held subconscious awareness and pain.  Getting support when we need it most helps participants to integrate, regulate, and have a felt experience of the transformative power of resonance.

Here’s what a previous participant shared about having assistant support available during courses: “Thank you so much for offering the in-class 1:1 support with a resonance assistant as part of the course. This opportunity has gone a long way to provide me with a personalized felt sense of the impact of this process when working with a trained and skilled person to a greater depth than I had experienced on my own. Such a gift.” ~ Dorothy
