How do we unlock meanings from what we hear and read?  So often we depend totally upon our minds to give us those meanings and the words to write about them.  But our hearts are wiser.  In this workshop meditation practices will help us use the ears of our hearts to plumb the depths of meanings in what we read and hear and to find the right words to articulate those meanings.These meditation and writing techniques can be an aid in any writing project:  personal journaling, letter writing, student papers.

 The workshop will be led by Mary (Hasna) Ber, M.A., who has been a Sufi for four years and a writing teacher for almost fifty years.  She currently teaches at Pima College, Northwest Campus.
