Keep It Clear
Morning Pages
In this cohort, Keep it Clear will facilitate daily prompts pulled from our oracle deck. Consider these prompts a creative tool for the empathetic inquiry of self. Each morning - you will wake up to thoughtful topics of consideration that we hope generate new personal insight, ultimately, these thought-starters can be helpful catalyst to the habit of consistent writing.
Our prompts will organically and gently move you through a clearing over the next 40 days, a phased approach to key themes. In the spirit of transparency, we invite you to embrace your most authentic expression in this process - remember there is no right or wrong here. You are your own meaning-maker.
Check back on Sundays for the prompts for each week!
