Revision doesn't have to be terrifying! I know for so many writers, this part of the process can be really intimidating. In my journey as a writer, I’ve come to find that the more I can get out of the way, the better the work is. As I like to tell my students and clients, “The book is the boss. I just work here.” This episode explores how we can get out of the way and revise our relationship to our Egos in order to come to the page when we're revising (or drafting) with expansiveness, openness, and curiosity. When we work from our Essential Selves--which we are able to access through training in meditation and mindfulness--we no longer work from a place of fear or expectation for ourselves or the work. We can be a blank page, ready to see what the work wants to be. In this episode, I get into some helpful strategies and talk a bit about how meditation saved me in my most recent revision. Be sure to check out the separate meditation that goes along with this so you can dive deeper!
