connect with yourself
connect with others
let your voice grow strong
Breathe/Read/Write is a welcoming circle where people meditate, free-write, and share together.
“To sit with Lisa and quiet down, then write, is a great feeling….no one knows what will surface, and the sharing is such a relief from the noise of daily nothings. Highly recommended for poets and for all those who feel.” – P. Brown

Coaching
The way BRW weaves meditation and free-writing together also works in the context of one-on-one writing coaching. LISA FREEDMAN has 18 years of experience guiding writers of all kinds through the projects that call to them.
These days, many of her clients welcome the brief meditation breaks that Lisa offers in their coaching sessions. They find that these pauses generate a sense of possibility and a clean sense of confidence. To see more about Lisa’s work as a writing coach, click https://lfwritingcoach.com/.
