“Work, stress & isolation were affecting my mental and physical health. Through Manifest’s yoga & meditation classes, I’ve really found peace and a connection with the flow of my life. I’ve even quit smoking!”
— Bill Chin, 48, father of two and an IT project manager

SOUL TALK WRITING GROUP (PSU)

Discover your deeper purpose through writing & heart sharing in a supportive group of diverse men

Thursdays weekly
6:30-8:00 pm
PSU

“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart,
and try to love the questions themselves.”
—Rainer Maria Rilke

Through regular writing & sharing about your dreams and situations in your life that excite, challenge, or confuse you, you can come to understand the deeper patterns and stories of your life.  By examining your feelings, thoughts, and insights gently and playfully with a group of men who want to uncover their deeper purpose, you can embrace your life & potential.  Co-sponsored by PSU Queer Resource Center & hosted at PSU.  You may start this group at any time, so long as you register in advance by phone or online.  We request all participants take time to write before attending the group.
