Last week's Co journaling session was lovely and I'm looking forward to hosting another 30 minutes of Co Journalling where I'll be offering up some prompts where we can write together. Our theme is Choosing what feels true. Free writing Prompts 1. What feels true in my body before I explain it? 2. Where am I choosing from pressure instead of truth? 3. What have I outgrown, even if I still love it? 4. What feels heavy because it is not mine to carry? 5. What small yes feels honest right now? 6. What small no would protect my peace? 7. What is the truest next step I can take this week? Grab a cuppa and some sheets of paper or your favourite notebook and "Write With Me" tomorrow at 11 am UK time. I have changed our platform to show our names when we log in but we will only need to register once to join the webinar after that :)

Hello Lovely Writers! This weeks Open Page Prompts are now in the classroom for you - as we move along the Empowerment way, our theme is Choosing What Feels True. Last week, we wrote around trusting your own voice. This week asks: What do I do with what I hear? Because once your voice begins to return, your choices begin to shift. Don't forget, Our Write with me Co-Journaling session is tomorrow at 11am UK time 🤍 pop a reminder in your calendar. We would love to see you there. I hope you enjoy this weeks prompts and as always please feel free to share anything that comes up for you and enjoy! love always, Silver

As we close this week, we are carrying the Empowering thread forward. We have been writing with: Trusting Your Own Voice And next week, we move into: Choosing What Feels True That feels like the natural next step. Because once you begin to hear your voice again, the next question becomes: What do I choose from here? What feels true now?What feels honest?What feels aligned?What feels like mine? Here are three prompts that you might like to bring intentions into your writing for the next six months. 1. What do I want to feel more of in the next six months? 2. What choice would honour the person I am becoming? 3. What is one true thing I can begin with this week? Also our next Write With Me Co Journaling session is on Tuesday at 11am UK time. I'd be delighted if you could join me, I will send Prompts in advance or if you prefer you can write with your own words, there will also be space to write together with our Reflections Prompts.

A little Gentle Return for the turning of the year. We are officially halfway through 2026 which is such a beautiful time to pause with your journal and ask: Where am I now? What has changed? What is asking for my attention? What do I want the next six months to feel like? This is not a check-in to measure yourself harshly or to take stock of how far you didn't get to. It is a place to take a breath and notice. Maybe you are exactly where you hoped you would be. Maybe you are somewhere completely different. Life has got a funny way of through obstacles in our paths and sending us on a tanjant sometimes! or maybe something new came into your life. As a little summer solstice gift, here are three prompts for your page. 3 Solstice Prompts 1. What has this first half of the year taught me about myself? 2. What am I ready to thank, release, or complete? 3. What part of me is asking for more light? Come back to one of these today, or keep them for a quiet moment this week. Your page is allowed to meet you exactly where you are.

Today’s Gathered Gold comes from Words Have Weight, from the Reflections collection. This piece feels perfect for this week because we are working with voice, trust, and the words that have shaped us. Some words stay with us. For Whatever reasons, some beautiful, some painful. Some marked upon us like a tattoo. Here is the poem for today: Words Have Weight There are times in my life - a word sealed my fate. The moment it was said - the word had weight. “Sorry.” “Goodbye.” “Love.” I didn’t know what I know now. The word on their tongue, or mine, could be the deepest pool - an alternate path in time. “Promise.” “Lie.” “Deny.” The reflection was my own, the step was mine. The word belonged to me - to carry in my mind. “Guilt.” “Truth.” “Clarity.” Marked by words, caressed by words, loved, scarred,and shaped by words. Bound by words. “Honour.” “Pride.” “Fail.” Choose the route - slip into the pool. ripples of words cascade - sound waves on water. “Scream.” “Silence.” “Surrender.” Journal prompt What is one word that has shaped me, and what word am I ready to choose now?
