What You’ll Learn in the Next 9 Months

Mark will guide you through the fundamental spiritual skills and competencies you’ll need to successfully navigate your past experiences and mine them for your journey of healing through writing — which will, in turn, transform the quality of your life — during this 9-month transformational intensive.

Each weekly, LIVE reflection and training session will expand on the previous one, giving you a thorough, holistic grasp of the practices, skills, and ideas you’ll need to sustain your writing throughout the course and beyond.

The course meets on Tuesdays @ 12:00pm Pacific.

Module 1: Feeling the Wound (August 18 & 25, September 1)

In this subject, you will investigate the following questions: Where do you experience the greatest suffering in your life? What is the source of your pain? We’ll start by making a secure container, and you’ll learn to find your most sensitive portions – getting to know the geography of your losses, worries, and limits.

You will discover how to:

Tell the truth about your discomfort.
Determine the root of your pain and its impact on your life.
Emotional voices must be freed.
Pay attention to your specific discomfort.
Recognize the importance of constraints.

The wounds are hidden in the shadows. The wound, which has been hiding the truth in the darkness, craves exposure to light. This month, you will bring more awareness, understanding, and acceptance to your sensitive portions. As a result, you will have more energy throughout your life.

You will discover how to:

Overcome your guilt over your shadow.
Consider the aspects of yourself that you reject.
Stop hiding behind your suffering.
Acquaint yourself with your own harm.
Identify and collect the shadow’s hidden riches.
Module 3: Appreciating the Gift (October 6, 13 & 20)

Your scars are not weights, but rather catalysts for waking. You may not realize it yet, but your abilities are frequently hidden in plain sight. This module will help you through the process of exploring and connecting with the hidden potential lurking in your “broken pieces” in order to emerge with the gift that is uniquely yours.

You will discover how to:

Use the gift to help yourself heal.
Welcome to the “fruitful gloom.”
Apply the gift to self-realization.
Recognize the power of paradox.
Change your hurtful tale.
Module 4: Dealing with Opposition (November 3, 10 & 17)

Your greatest gift, as you’ll find, is guarded by enemies. As you progress on your road, fear, wrath, and uncertainty emerge alongside enlightenment. This is the contradictory fact that this module will help you hold. Recognizing it as a source of healing.

This module will teach you how to:

Face your opponents as tough friends, not strangers.
Utilize the reversed power of rage.
Open awareness can help to reduce fear.
Stop fighting against misfortune.
In times of discomfort, practice comfort.
Module 5: Exploring the Myth (December 1, 8 & 15)

Moving forward from the previous module, your internal (and external) opponents compel you to confront your tale. This month we look at: What is the essence of your own life myth? Your memory is untrustworthy; studies indicate that we “remember” things that never happened. Those that did occur are cloaked in fiction.

This module will teach you how to:

Examine where your tale departs from reality.
Determine how you are blind to yourself.
Step away from the story you’re telling.
Over time, reinvent this narrative.
Improve your genuineness and well-being.
Module 6: Pain Transformation (January 5, 12 & 19)

Your tale transforms when you share the truth. As your tale evolves, so does your sorrow – and so does your life. This month, we’ll look at how personal reality changes and evolves.

You will discover how to:

Accept the problems that life throws to you.
Link vulnerability and strength.
Transform anguish from suffering to insight.
Be gentle with your injured areas.
Accept the traumas of daily existence.
Module 7: Seeing Through New Eyes (February 2, 9 & 16)

We view with new eyes as survivors. We’re wide awake after passing through the night. This month we will focus on how our lives are continually beginning — that untended wounds lock us in place, that and awakened wounds illuminate us. This will be our primary emphasis this month.

You will discover how to:

Harvest the benefits of survival.
Use constraint to your advantage.
Create a beginner’s mind practice.
Enjoy the ever-expanding perspective on what is possible.
Every day, be grateful.
Module 8: View Stabilization (March 1, 8 & 15)

Habitual abilities are strongly conditioned. Mindfulness is required to balance this new way of perceiving. This month, we’ll look at mindfulness as a tuning fork that connects to the awakened self.

You will discover how to:

Mindfulness can help to stabilize emotions.
Off the meditation cushion, practice awareness.
Recognize when old tendencies emerge.
Make use of your body as a self-tuning instrument.
Practice being open to new perspectives.
Module 9: Broadening the Circle (April 5, 12 & 19)

The enlightened self wishes to pass on its blessings. The wounded healer wishes to communicate. Every wound produces its own medication, its own unique kind of strength. This month, we’ll look at how you might use this ability to better your life and the lives of others.

You will discover how to:

Make use of the wound as medication.
Put that medication to use in the name of love.
Bless the wound as a gift.
Use your grief to connect with others.
Finally, recognize oneself as unhurt.

Love and Writing: The Healing Power of Truth Audio Dialogue with Eve Ensler

Mark chats with playwright, novelist, and activist Eve Ensler on the connection between personal storytelling and soul survival in this uplifting and intriguing interview. Eve believes that unless we write down our tales, we will not be able to grasp our own healing path or appreciate the important role of the imagination in creating a meaningful existence. “You can’t live it unless you envision it,” Eve informs Mark. We begin to recognize our scars as sources of insight and personal empowerment as we shift from the victim to the creative position.

Eve Ensler is a Tony Award-winning playwright, actor, and activist whose play The Vagina Monologues has been translated into 48 languages and performed in over 140 countries. Ensler has written for The Guardian, The Huffington Post, The Washington Post, The Utne Reader, The International Herald Tribune, Glamour Magazine, and Marie Claire, as well as having a monthly piece in O Magazine. Ensler was designated one of US News & World Report’s “Best Leaders” in November 2009, in collaboration with the Center for Public Leadership (CPL) at Harvard Kennedy School. Good Housekeeping Magazine named her one of the “125 Women Who Changed Our World” in 2010. She was named one of Newsweek’s “150 Women Who Changed the World” and one of The Guardian’s “100 Most Influential Women” in 2011.

Audio Interviews with Mark and Previous Students from Real Life Inspiration Sessions

You’ll hear stories of inspiration and transformation from Mark’s prior pupils in these 9 interviews. Mark is joined in each session by a special guest who has healed through writing — and they will share the work they are doing, which may relate to your own writing and healing journey.

Audio Dialogue with Thomas Moore on Fear and the Shadow

We can’t reap the benefits of the wound unless we’re willing to face our fears. Mark will speak with the author of Care of the Soul on how to overcome our fear of our dark aspects and why they are essential to soul growth.

Thomas Moore is the author of the bestseller book Care of the Soul and fifteen more works on growing spirituality and nurturing soul in every part of life. He has been a monk, a musician, a university professor, and a psychotherapist, and he now gives numerous talks on holistic medicine, spirituality, psychotherapy, and the arts. He regularly talks in Ireland and has a strong interest in Irish culture. He holds a Ph.D. in religion from Syracuse University and has received various honors for his efforts, including an honorary doctorate from Lesley University and the Humanitarian Award from Yeshiva University’s Einstein Medical School. Three of his works have won the coveted Books for a Better Life honors.

Dive When You’re Falling Audiobook Mark Matousek reads

Do survivors of life’s most difficult challenges have a special knowledge? Why do some individuals thrive in the face of hardship while others crumble? What secret force helps us get back up after we’ve been struck down? The solution is viriditas, the ability to pull passion, beauty, and knowledge from the most unexpected places.

Mark investigates this unusual event in his book When You’re Falling, Dive. He brings 25 years of personal experience to the paradoxical question of how disaster can be used to awaken and transform us, seeking advice from well-known survivors such as Joan Didion, Elie Wiesel, and Isabel Allende, as well as philosophical experts such as Eckhart Tolle, Jon Kabat-Zinn, and Sogyal Rinpoche.

From a Sudanese boy slave kidnapped at the age of seven, to a Tibetan nun imprisoned by Chinese militia, to the heroic women of Calama, Chile, who continued digging for their “disappeared” relatives following Pinochet’s Caravan of Death, Matousek sifts through extraordinary testimonials — as well as recent breakthroughs in neuroscience — to demonstrate that we are, in fact, hardwired to evolve and adapt when faced with the impossible. It is both humbling and motivating to be reminded that our greatest strength lies in our vulnerability.
