Storytelling with the Tao Te Ching
A new Substack from me
Hello friends,
Inspired by the online course I created at Retreat West, this latest Substack is a new home for writers who want to explore Taoist philosophies and take their writing to a deeper level.
We find ourselves living in tumultuous and fast changing times and I believe that as storytellers, we have to start to change the way we portray humanity and the world to bring more positivity and love to the universe.
If you’re interested in joining in, you’ll need to subscribe separately via the post below, which includes an example of the new posts I will be sharing.
All of the posts will be free to all but comments and sharing of ideas and responses to the prompts will only be for paid subscribers. I do hope you’ll join me in exploring this ancient wisdom to inspire stories that can help change us today.
With love,
What a brilliant and welcome idea this is, Amanda. The Tao Te Ching is one of the most important texts in my life. Looking forward to reading your insights on involving it and writing a storytelling. In case it's of interest, here's an essay I wrote some years ago on the I Ching (another Chinese book that's important to me) and its relation to meditation and the daimon muse: https://www.teemingbrain.com/2013/07/15/invoking-the-muse-with-meditation-and-the-i-ching/
