Retreat Day 2: Breakdowns and Breakthroughs

Day 2 brought breakdowns and breakthroughs. Writing a book requires a new level of you to truly be that message you're bringing into the world. It also brought out more big paper until finally, we broke out the laptops and the afternoon was spent with the clicking and clacking of keyboards.
 
Oh and the word for the day was "mentalbate" (or mentalbation)
 
We also witnessed a wedding outside of our balcony that brought in fits of laughter before going down to the secret lounge in the cellar to relax and unwind and listen to some live music.
 
I am deeply grateful for this experience, for these women and their creations and what they are teaching me. My own book 'Writing the Damn Book' took on a new life and tone as I was writing in it yesterday too because of this weekend.
 
One more day until we are released back into the world, creations in hand. Today we will be diving into the writing, using the most beautiful maps, waiting to be fleshed out.
