HeartWriting

Finding Rose and her Expansive Writing Workshop was divine timing.My creativity had taken a back seat to the demands of solo motherhood and working full time, and I was feeling the pull towards opening up this part of my heart and soul again.As soon as I visited Rose's social media and website, I knew that I had found the place where I would find my creative flow again.Rose's 10-week Expansive Writing Workshop has been the most beautiful experience, I look forward to each Saturday workshop and I have found my writing joy again.Finding the words in such a state of flow has been the greatest gift, and Rose has been the facilitator of this gift.Her gentle guidance and depth of knowledge are so appreciated, and the way she manages to find the light within us as her writing students that we have lost somewhere is simply magical.

HeartWriting came at a time when I was living with a lot of anxiety and felt like I was on the edges of burnout. I had lost myself and my joy. Starting the ten week course has reminded me of who I am, has reminded me of my love of reading and writing, my love of stories. I love the growth I have seen in myself and my confidence build in trusting myself and my creativity. I can’t thank Rose enough for what she and her course have done to bring my sense of creativity and playfulness back.

I admit I have procrastinated for too long to leave a review for HeartWriting because even with everything I was taught in the Expansive Writing course, I still felt I couldn’t do justice to the quality content and heart opening space that Rose has created.I was firmly in a place of fear when I took the plunge and let myself be encouraged into the course, and came out the other side with a more open heart, more faith in myself, and more educated in the areas that mattered to me.From the content to the delivery style and the personalised advice in the 1-1 mentoring, the course is a true gift to anyone who ‘wishes they could’ but who ‘doesn’t out of fear’. You’ll find yourself in the safest place possible, where you’ll be supported, encouraged and left to ponder what else you can do if you pack away the worries and just let yourself be immersed in the practices and knowledge, and let the words flow.

Rose was great to work with, very accommodating with her time. Rose was genuinely interested, asking lots of questions to ensure the content read right and gave the right message. Highly recommend HeartWriting for crafting the right message!

I don't even know where to start. I came across Rose's course as an accident after yoga class. I just stood there and the flyer just stared at me. I just took a leap of faith not really knowing what HeartWriting means and signed up for the level 1 course immediately. My experience was nothing less than magical. Rose's presence and kind and supportive nature all along the way made it really special for me. Being an expat with English as my second language, I never thought I could actually write stories in English. I used to write my diary in English growing up but never dared to take it any further. Here I was, needing to unlearn so much programming around literature and good pieces of work, especially coming from a Persian background with some of the most amazing literature and poetry that exists.I loved the whole" approach Rose's course had to heartwriting. The meditation and yoga

If you have tried the creative writing course elsewhere and was left disappointed and thinking writing might not be for you. You should give heart writing a go. Writing is different when you are guided from the heart and supported by Rose. Her intuitive way of guiding you through this journey of inward exploration will leave you with heart-connected writing and more.

Rose has the ability and gift to hold each class with reverence and skill. Her positive responses to everyone's offerings provided a safe space to share thoughts, feelings and insights. This trust allowed us to be authentic in our writing. Her calm guidance within the workshops and the one to one mentoring sessions provided expert tuition in the craft of writing. She produced a range of highly acclaimed examples of great writing for us to discuss and provided us with skills to use in editing our work. I feel that Rose's elegant blend of spiritual understanding, discussion and practice mixed with her knowledge of teaching creative writing allowed my writing to blossom and my confidence in my ability to write for an audience to soar.
