Posted by admin in Education Writing on November 19, 2011
If you find solace in solitude, peace in nature and fulfillment in words, then a writing retreat is what you need. Writing helps you to be the real “you”, allowing you to look inside and empty your thoughts. You can reach out to the world with your words. Writing can rejuvenate you, it can re-instate your creative side and enliven your thought process. However, good writing comes when the mind is uncluttered, when there is no traffic (human or emotional) around you. It comes when you are with your ‘being,’ away from the crowd and have time to reflect, to look within. You can write well when your emotions are not charged, when you experience calmness outside and inside.
A creative writing retreat understands the intricacies of a creative mind. This program is designed to give you time, space and structure to work creatively. It is like a vacation to bring the best out of you. Creative writing and yoga encourage your imagination to go a step beyond and explore the untouched territories of your thoughts. This program is not like the stereotyped classroom training. This writing retreat frees you from the closed classroom environment. It liberates you and allows you to be close to nature, in its raw form. The location is just perfect to let your creative juices flow. And if that is not enough, there is a chef on board who cooks homemade food for the team. The retreat size is quite small, which is intentional. This program has some amazing features. It is not just a writer’s retreat – it is a holistic vacation.

The art of writing is as old as human race existed on this planet. This art distinguishes from other symbolic communication systems. Although other possible symbolic systems like information signs, painting, maps and mathematics do not require previous knowledge of a spoken language. Writing marks the dividing line between history and prehistory.
When paper was not invented, writing was usually done on any available object like leaves, stones or slabs. The process of digging land for building purposes led to the discovery of ancient artifacts. This revived a new interest as a result during the past in the 18th century.
