Ignite to Write A Writing and Yoga Retreat

UNLOCK THE STORIES THAT LIVE IN YOUR BONES

Have you been holding back your voice, your vision, your story—or waiting for permission to take up space, speak your truth, and bring to life the worlds you carry inside you? This is your invitation to unlock your voice, vision, and radical imagination.  

Ignite to Write is more than a writing retreat. It’s a chakra-based, somatic, and spiritual journey to awaken your creative fire, liberate your voice, and imagine new worlds into being. Together, we’ll move through the seven chakras, each one a portal to deeper expression, courage, clarity, and vision. From grounding in your roots to reclaiming your creativity, from igniting your power to liberating your voice, you’ll write your way into visibility—and into the future you long for. In a world that often silences our stories, writing becomes an act of remembering, resisting, and reimagining.

This weekend will help you release fear, move through blocks, and write with power and purpose through:

• Chakra-inspired yoga and somatic movement to activate your body’s wisdom and unblock creative energy
• Liberatory pranayama, mantra and mudra to clear internal barriers, awaken voice, center, ground, and express
• Guided writing prompts designed to move you from self-doubt to confident storytelling
• 20-minute writing sprints to build momentum and bypass perfectionism
• Publishing and visibility tools, including media contacts, pitch templates, and Susanna’s signature Integral Visibility system
• Open mic circles and optional feedback to help your voice rise with clarity and courage
• A collective space of belonging where your story, body, and vision are welcome

We’ll be practicing gentle, accessible, trauma-informed yoga and pranayama as part of the writing process. Whether you’re a seasoned writer or just beginning to explore your voice, this holistic and embodied experience is designed to meet you where you are.

Leave with a chakra-based writing and movement toolkit you can build on, your first story, essay, article, or blog post ready to publish, real visibility tools to get your work seen and shared, the confidence to speak your truth and take up space, and a renewed connection to your story, your voice, and your vision.

NOTE: Open to all. No prior yoga or writing experience is required. Sharing is optional. Please bring a notebook or journal, writing utensil, comfortable clothing to move in, and anything that helps you feel grounded (such as a shawl, crystals, and so on).
