Mind and Body

March 8, 2021 By Nancy Casey

Where is the line between your mind and your body? Nobody really knows, so it is something you can explore for yourself based on your experience.

Begin with page setup: Draw a line from the top to the bottom of the page, about an inch or so from the right-hand side. In the large remaining space, draw a line where the title will go and beneath it, make two column headings: Mind and Body. Down the center of the page, dividing the two columns, write the letters of the alphabet A-Z.

In the Mind column, write down a word that begins with each letter which is something that you can do with your mind. In the Body column, write down words for things you can do with your body.

Sometimes you will write something in a column and after some thought, realize it could go in the other column, too. In that case, write it twice.

Turn the page sideways so the inch or so of blank space runs side-to-side. Write down a thought or comment about minds and bodies that occurred to you as your were making these two lists.

Write a title at the top of the page. Put your signature and a date on the page as well.

Writing classes and workshops

I had been looking forward to the 2020 summer season of in-person  Write-For-You workshops at the Latah Recovery Community Center.  Alas.

 

Congratulations to last summer’s students who earned certificates in Fiction Writing, Project Management and Grant Writing.

 

Applause and thanks to those who dropped by the classes just for fun.

 

If you are in recovery and interesting in writing coaching, contact Nancy.


 

Let’s Talk About It

A program that supports reading and discussion in libraries throughout the state of Idaho. Free and open to all. Somehow? Again? At a later date?

 

We are all looking forward to the time when it will be possible to resume these lively book discussions.

 

I’ve served as a scholar for this program for I-don’t-know-how-many years. I have found every book, every library, every group of people to be interesting and stimulating. Every discussion brings new ideas and surprises.

 

I’m confident that this program will evolve so that it can continue to bring Idahoans together through books. We just don’t know how or when that will happen.  Yet.
