    How Words Heal Us: Poems by Czeslaw Milosz, Ellen Bass, & How to Show Up Online in Difficult Times

    How can you show up online and share in these difficult times, when we're more connected than ever before? If you're a Yoga Teacher, Wellness Practitioner, Healer, or Creative Soul who wants to connect online, it can be daunting to feel like what you offer is trivial. Yet our contributions matter. Stories, poems, art, music, meditation, spirituality: these things uplift us, nourish us, and help us remember our shared humanity. I'd say that's damn important in times like these. JOIN THE CREATIVE COPY FLOW: A FREE WRITING WORKSHOP FOR WELLNESS PROS & CREATIVE SOULS: https://melissacarroll.mykajabi.com/creative-copy This episode also includes poetry by the brilliant Polish poet and Nobel Prize winner Czeslaw Milosz, as well as the AMAZING contemporary poet Ellen Bass.
