Rewilding Through Writing
Together, we’ll dig deep, run wild on the page and share.
Writing is a potent, accessible way to explore who we are. Through writing we can howl onto blank pages, deepen dialogue with our bodies, play with our imaginations, and build intimacy with the natural world. When we write regularly, beyond enclosures of self-doubt or social conditioning, we can see — even for a moment — into our vast interior landscapes and explore the wonder of our ‘inner wild.’
We begin each class with a grounding meditation and move into readings, writing prompts and discussion. You’ll be asked to write from where the energy is. Some writing may therapeutic, just for you, while other pieces may evolve into work you’d like to read and share with our community.
Stay engaged between classes with suggested practices, readings, supportive check-ins and writing exercises.
The creative process may ask us to wander in the woods, create personal space, and endure boredom or emotional discomfort before we break through. Thus, your ‘homework’ (in addition to carving out time and space to create) may include mindful walks in nature or a nearby park, interviewing a loved one, handwriting a letter, or starting a new movement practice. Suggested exercises are designed to inspire your writing, bring intention into each day, and to nourish your animal body. Your creative source.
Sessions meet live on Zoom

Katrina Goldsaito
“Writing is the medicine I know. And I’m here to make space for your unfolding.”
Katrina is the author of the award-winning THE SOUND OF SILENCE, which Maria Popova called “An illustrated serenade to the art of listening to your inner voice amid the noise of modern life.” It was named a Book of the Year by NPR, People Magazine, and many others, and has been translated into six languages. She is a former journalist (NPR, NHK-World, CNN) and performer (New York NeoFuturists) and is the co-creator of ReachYou, an augmented reality transmission from the future, built for the tenderness of now. Katrina’s next book, WHEN CHERRY BLOSSOMS FALL (also Hachette / Little Brown and Co) is forthcoming in 2026 and is about the beauty in grief. Katrina is newly exploring ecological grief and our connection with the natural world as she translates the Japanese haiku of her great-grandmother who lost her entire family to the atomic bombing in Hiroshima. She lives in the woods in Amherst with her partner and two small beings.
