The Way of StoryOnline Courses at the Daily OM
Our world is made up of stories. If you don’t like the one you’re in, write a better one. Like your Soul, the soul of story is a combination of craft and magic, a uniting of head and heart. We live in a world of too much separation and pain and at the same time for many writers, one that recognizes the power of ending that separation by illuminating the oneness of life through creating powerful characters that live in our individual and collective psyche awaiting release. Writing is a powerful tool of self-exploration.

Our lives may be determined less by past events than by the way we remember them. You are invited to come aboard this inner adventure that offers a step by step journey of discovery and re-visioning through focused journaling. Throughout the eight sessions, you will be engaged in exercises designed to facilitate healing and transformation. Telling stories about our past through focused journaling can help change our perspectives to enable healing and empowerment. In this way, we are able to make meaning out of memory and put the past where it belongs – behind us. Healing and transformation are only possible through changing one’s perspective from within. In this way, global healing takes place one individual, one tribe, at a time. What story are you living? How do you choose to remember your story?

Are you merely surviving or are you living creatively?
Survival has become a dominant theme in today’s world – both personally and collectively.
One of the down sides of being locked into survival mode is that surviving sometimes takes over altogether – and the quality of living lessens or even ends. In order to live, and not merely survive, a sense of creative living must return. Creativity tends the mind and soul while survival focuses only on the body. Both are necessary for a full life.
