Learning from the experts

For some time I have been blogging and writing articles – for a number of years I wrote about being an expatriate living in Asia. Some of my articles were published and syndicated on the internet. When I lived in Hong Kong I wrote for the American Women’s Association. However now I just maintain my own blog and have had a lot of delight doing so. As a result I have had to know how to blog.
Kathryn Collins MD new this and she has been wanting to break into writing and has some very cool book and eBook ideas. To facilitate this I recommended blogging. We have talked many times on the subject but today Kathryn gave me a great gift.
She told me about a workshop she had just done on finding your Authentic Voice. She saw an advertisement in the paper for a workshop at the library where she lives and called about it to find out it was already booked full. She told the present that just two nights before she had had a dream about packing suitcases and a train coming into the station. When the train arrived she boarded the train only with a notebook and pen. When the presenter of this workshop heard Kathryn’s dream she said she would make room for her to be there.
Kathryn learnt from the workshop about getting in touch with your bodies, her heart and meditate to have your writing be mindful. The presenter explained that all deep writing is a connection from body and soul it is rooted in your experience.
The workshop was a sharing and supportive environment and one of the instructions for the day was to only have positive comments.
As part of the TUG (The Ultimate Game) environment we have discussed many times looking at our network and seeing who supports us in our goals. Kathryn found this community through a newspaper advertisement and connected with a group that has her now inspired and in writing mode for her blog. The process for her has begun and on top of that she is now connecting with like minded people.
I for one can hardly wait to read her blogs at www.lifestyledr.com , bravo Dr Kathryn for taking the step towards blogging and writing.
