The free Cafe la Boheme writing practice has now gone on continuously every Friday at noon since March 27, 2009. Every Friday a little before noon people gather at a table. They write short phrases on scraps of paper and fold them and put them in the center of the table. Somebody sets a timer and picks a prompt at random and reads it aloud. Everybody writes. When the timer goes off we go around the table and read aloud one by one. Nobody comments. We just read aloud. Then the next person picks a …
You should join this group if you love and involve yourself with standup comedy. An ideal member is someone who writes, produces, and performs comedy in the Bay Area, Southern California, and onward. We are looking to network with other comics, producers, and writers. Though we respect mime, poetry slam, puppet, and magic show art forms, this group is focused strictly on standup comedy only. We love the Jeff Dunhams and Carrot tops, just not in our showrooms. Hello! We are a group of comedi …
Feeling Arranging is a primitive form of Shamanism, which is nature based and very ancient. It’s about finding our original self through arranging our feelings. This group is for the adventurous and the fearless. Feeling Arranging is uniquely different from the shamanism and healing methods we know such as journeying, soul retrieval and meditation. We use darkness as a positive force to heal ourselves and to connect with our ancestors and nature. Like a seed needs a dark place to incubate before …

Writing offers a way for people to connect to deeper, wiser aspects of ourselves – a way for us to find out, as the poet Audre Lorde said, “what we didn’t know we knew.” Almost every writer has experienced mysterious moments when the words that flow from our pens, or from our fingers on a keyboard, seem as if they come from someplace else – a place beyond our small human selves. Sometimes, when we let it happen, it’s as if the words become a little boat, a raft on which we can sail in a larger s …

Hoping to discuss and support one another in getting in touch with our creativity once again. Creativity in various forms that was left behind at some point in our lives. I have been writing poetry as of late, and I have been amazed at the process of images and words coming to me-through me, and feeling like a "witness" to the "creative process," for the first time in my life. I am interested in this process and to others that have experienced or would like to experience this more in their lives …

Calling all Magical Writers for this fun and loving place to tap into your authentic voice! This is a place for anyone interested in following your intuition and creative play with words and storytelling. I started this group because I am a Shamanic Healer in San Francisco and I have found joy in bringing healing through writing and storytelling.

The Liminal Art Salon meetup group is a forum for incubating authentic expression. Its purpose is to guide, stimulate and inspire artists and seekers to renew the spirit and power of true, authentic creative expression. Liminal literally means "threshold". To create from a liminal state is to cross the threshold between everyday reality and the invisible realms of supra rational consciousness. We aim to generate, brainstorm and cultivate ideas, imaginings, creations, events and collaborations. O …
This group is for people who are seeking to establish deep spiritual friendships both with others, and with themselves. We will commit to co-creating an atmosphere that offers deep listening, unwavering compassion -- and potentially life-altering challenge to the status quo. This ongoing group will explore and practice ways to 1) Access our deepest wisdom, and 2) More completely integrate and embody that wisdom in all aspects of our lives. In this process, we’ll draw respectfully from many s …
