Soul Writers Circle.
Rosemerry and Augusta have been guiding Soul Writers Circle for over two years now. Because of the overwhelming response and the quick sell out of the Seasons, we now have both a SUNDAY and a MONDAY Circle. Check dates and times below and grab your spot while you can!
Get in on this amazing experience, Soul Writers Circle!
Writing and meditation are both, in many ways, solitary acts that involve deep listening and a far-reaching willingness to show up. And when we practice mindfulness and writing together—oh, the possibilities for inspiration, connection, and heart-awakening conversation.
Join psychotherapist/mindfulness teacher/yoga instructor Augusta Kantra and poet Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer in a monthly online community practice in which we build a community that supports each other as we explore together, through silence and language, what does it mean to be alive? But as Ramana Maharshi says, The purpose of asking who am I is not to arrive at an answer but to dissolve the questioner.
Rosemerry and Augusta have created a connected, bonded circle of people that explore and discover together, thus they have designed this program as a six-month commitment. It is the commitment we all share that supports this vision. We understand that unforeseen circumstances sometimes arise, but barring that, we ask everyone to do their best to be at each meeting.

Soul Writers Circle is not meant to be about producing a “product,” but about going on a journey. The aim is not perfection, but rather to open our hearts just a crack to allow the light in. In the words of Leonard Cohen, “Forget your perfect offering. There is a crack in everything. That’s how the light gets in.” Each person brings their unique gift/light to this journey.
You do NOT need to be an experienced writer or poet. You simply need to have the desire to see what comes through you as you open to writing from your truth. Soul Writers Circle is intended for people with a sincere desire to explore, share, write from the heart, and listen from the soul. The only requirement is the willingness to “show up and burn brightly.”
Participating in an online community is an incredible opportunity to connect with people from all over without traveling. It is the chance to BE together even though we aren’t together.
We are passionate about this vision and are excited about sharing this adventure with you!

Dear Augusta,
I am belatedly learning (in this new year, on Rosemerry Trommer’s website) of your Soul Writers Circle offering now underway. What a wonderful offering, and one beautifully coinciding with the depth and promise of the new year.
Please add my name to a mailing list ,or waitlist, of persons interested should you begin a new Circle this summer, or develop openings in this initial one.
Many thanks,
Namaste,
Lea DuRard
