Foundation - Dig Deeper

Kayce S. Hughlett

What a delight to gather with each of you for our creative making session. Whether you joined us live or visit the recording, we’d love to hear how you’re continuing to engage with this process. (Click here for recording.)

Here are a few suggestions for digging deeper:

• Write an acrostic poem using the word FOUNDATION. (i.e. begin each line with the letters of the word. No word limits.)

• Take your leftover bits, words, scraps, images and create a haiku. (i.e. 3 lines with 5-7-5 syllables)

• Free-write and/or journal with your completed collage and/or one of the poems you created.

• Notice what surprised you. What you left off the collage. What you added. How do you feel when you look at your creation? Does it seem like a representative FOUNDATION for where you currently are in life and/or as we begin our Garden of Old Bones journey together?

We’d love to hear what sparked for you! Please share your thoughts in the comments below! Also feel free to include your own deepening practice(s), so we can give them a try.

Link above for the recording and here’s the Rumi excerpt we used to begin our creative journey.

Cheers!

“Who am I?

One moment, I’m fire, the next, a flash flood.

Now I’m levitating over the plains, now I’m plodding through deserts and towns.

Where do I come from? What rung do I stand on? In what market am I for sale?

One moment, I feel the sorrow of separation. One moment, I’m a mystery in Mystery’s arms.”
