At Deer Park Institute I experienced an environment of trust where one lived simply bonded easily and slept peacefully amidst nature.
The workshop titled "Writing the Wild" exposed us to the writings of Gary Snyder and facilitated a nature connect where I felt one with nature and myself. Janet was a wonderful guide to the group that came together mystically in time and space. We walked up the mountains, through the village upto the waterfall in silence, conversing with nature, stopping now and then to write on our little notepads-recording life as we experienced it in the moment.
Janet's gentle yet profound guidance, life to life exchange and Snyder’s “In The Snow” poetry and compelling essays on compassion inspired original writing and underlined the importance for each individual to have a ‘voice’ .
“It is your responsibility in this lifetime” stated Janet as she encouraged me to come from a place of authority in my work as a film and theater writer. Reassuring, Reflective and Refreshing! I had tears in my eyes as I left Deer Park, as if being separated from Mother Nature, yearning to reconnect more and more.
Thank you so much for providing such thoughtful programs and such a pure and stimulating environment for all those who are seeking!
