Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original:
whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before)
you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it.

C. S. Lewis

Writing Beyond the Self. 29 March - 3 April, TRC (Groot Marico)

"You need to begin to explore another way to write, to build awareness 
to write from...To create from joy, to create from wonder, demands a 
continual discipline, a great compassion...it demands a continual objectivity of spirit, a continual looking out at, and beyond the world created by the senses..." 
Thuksey Rinpoche, in Andrew Harvey's Journey to Ladakh (1983)

This retreat will run for five days, with the option of only joining for the weekend. It combines Mindfulness practices with writing workshops, exploring ways of using Mindfulness as a source of creativity and self-exploration, while using writing as a tool for developing awareness.  

Here are more details on the retreat, as well as the costs of different accommodation options: http://www.tararokpacentre.co.za/mindful-writing

Writing is an adventure. To begin with, it is a toy and an amusement. Then it becomes a mistress, then it becomes a master, then it becomes a tyrant. The last phase is that just as you are about to be reconciled to your servitude, you kill the monster and fling him to the public.
Winston Churchill
There's nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and open a vein. ~Walter Wellesley "Red" Smith
