Vom Körper schreiben - ein kreativer Schreibworkshop mit
Eva Weaver
‘Schreib dich selbst. Dein Körper muss gehört werden.’ Helen Cixous
Unser Körper enthält Geschichten und Erinnerungen - alles, was wir jemals erlebt oder gefühlt haben, lebt in unserem Blut, unseren Knochen, Muskeln, Zellen, und unserer DNA.
Aber wie können wir aus und mit unserem Körper schreiben?
Wie erschließen wir den reichen, komplexen Schatz der unser Körper ist, um Inspiration und authentisches Schreiben zu finden?
In diesem 90- minütigen Workshop lauschen wir durch Bewegung und spielerische somatische Übungen in den Körper und tauchen dann inspiriert von diesen Wahrnehmungen in das Schreiben
ein.
Wir hören auf die Geschichten die unser Körper trägt, und wechseln mühelos zwischen wahrnehmen und schreiben hin und her: vom Bewegen und Wahrnehmen zum Schreiben und wieder zurück.
Wir spielen mit automatischem /Stream of Consciousness writing und thematischem Schreiben.
Du brauchst keine Erfahrung in kreativem Schreiben, nur Experimentierfreude.
Ihr könnt natürlich in jeder Sprache schreiben!
Der Workshop dauert 90 Minuten:
18:50 Ankommen/Arrival
19:00 Start
20:30 Ende
Sprache/ Language: German und/ oder English as needed

WRITING FROM THE BODY- an embodied creative writing workshop with Eva Weaver
‘Write your self. Your body must be heard.’ Helen Cixous
Our bodies hold stories and memories- everything we have ever experienced thought or felt lives in our blood, our bones, muscles, cells, our very DNA.
But how do we write from the body?
How do we tap into the rich ground that is our body for inspiration and authentic, original writing?
How can we write from our whole body not only from our brain?
In this 90 min workshop we will consciously tune into our bodies, using movement, guided mediation, body scans and playful somatic exercises to cultivate embodied writing.
We will listen deeply to the stories our bodies hold, move effortlessly between sensing, experiencing and moving to the page and back.
We will play with automatic/ stream of consciousness writing, prompts and themed writing.
No experience in creative writing necessary.
You can write of course in any language!
The workshop will be taught in German and English.
Session is 90 min

About Eva Weaver:
Writing is my passion and my main creative expression. I have published two historic novels (‘The Puppet Boy of Warsaw’ (2013) and ‘The Eye of the Reindeer’ (2016) and am currently working on an
erotic novel and a poetry collection. .
I am interested in the connection between our bodies and how we express ourselves creatively.
I believe passionately in the healing power of creativity and in our birthright to creativity and a fulfilled sexuality. My intention is to support people to feel more empowered and alive and I
bring my heart, passion and wisdom from my own healing journey and my experiences as a performance artist, writer, art therapist, sexological bodyworker, rebirther & creativity coach to my
work and offerings.
What participants of ‘Writing from the Body’ have said:
‘The workshop was a playful way to process deeply and find entry points into creative flow. Assisted Embodied Souldiving!’ KC
‘A unique set of tools to take me into a writing process, from deeply felt, often surprising places’
‘This one day workshop gave me so much; new ways to connect to my writing, deeper characterisation, and scenes magically unfolded. Yet, I received more than that, an understanding of how our
stories are in our bodies, and though Eva’s gentle, warm and nurturing facilitation, I also had some incredible healing shifts for my personal life. Highly recommended.’ Kate Marillat,
bestselling Author of ‘Transform your Beliefs, transform your life’’
‘Eva’s 'Writing from the Body' workshop, that could easily be called ‘writing from, through and beyond the body’- gradually takes you deep inside, quite effortlessly and much deeper then you
realise, thanks to her gentle ways and playful strategies.
I have found it an inspiring and nourishing day and I brought home a lot of food for thought, snippets of good writing to develop as well as a palette of techniques to continue playing with.‘
