Writing our story means taking a deep listen to our inner truths and to our inner secrets, often revealing a hidden sacred dimension. It means to discover something inside of us that is very much alive and pulsing, something that we didn’t know was there and that is worth nurturing. Maybe it could become something to tell the world about.
Re-reading and re-visiting, discovering new dimensions within ourselves put us in a fresh new perspective: we become travelers inside our own mind, into a place that we inhabit but are able to re-discover each time. Every time we tell ourselves the “tale of our life” we do it to make sure that it works again, creating in us the wonderful feeling of being safe and alive.
We all are incredible beings hosting memories. We are a living tale. That’s why each encounter of this course will teach us how to stop everything else around us and how to start listening to our inner voice, carefully transferring on paper the messages that we receive.
To delve deeper into this topic, join Barbara Martini for a two month weekly course exploring the topics of:
“Autobiographic Writing: The Enchantment of Paper”
“Epistolary Writing: The Letter I never wrote you”
“Automatic Writing: Like a Dream”
“Imaginary Writing: A fable as a friend”

“To live a reality immersed in the sacred is for many people an abstract thought, something only perceivable beyond ordinary life, a blurry place halfway between “interesting” and “unexplainable”, something hard to obtain, contain, express. But this force pulling us up represents us since the dawn of time, it defines us, moves us towards new horizons, towards the adventures that we create and build through our daily decisions, wish after wish, wound after wound. Love after love.
This is what I want to talk about: the thread that can enable us to overcome any fear and bring us above what we already know through simplicity: an encounter, a word, a look, an emphatic presence sometimes becoming a touch that can caress our essence - our most “sacred” part, even when we don’t notice. If this contact happens, if the alchemy happens, then something wakes up and it begins to tell a story, it begins to tell us how we should live to allow ourselves the space to welcome that feeling again and again. For ourselves, the other, for the world as we know it. For that sacred passage from a heart to another heart.
That’s where we really begin the journey, a delicate and strong journey towards the temple of our truth.”
- Barbara Martini
ITALIANO
Scrivere la nostra storia è un ascolto profondo delle nostre verità interiori, dei nostri spazi più segreti che spesso rivelano una dimensione sacra, un bozzolo vivo e palpitante che non pensavamo di avere, un qualcosa di cui vale la pena prendersi cura e , forse, raccontare al mondo.
Il rileggere, rivisitare, scoprire queste dimensioni di noi stessi ci pone in una prospettiva nuova, diventiamo dei viaggiatori all’interno della nostra mente, in un paese che abitiamo ma che riscopriamo ogni volta, tutte le volte cioè che ci raccontiamo la storia della nostra vita per essere sicuri che funzioni ancora, che ci regali ancora la meravigliosa sensazione di essere al sicuro.
Noi siamo incredibili creature abitate da memorie .Siamo un racconto vivente. Proprio per questo questo corso ha come scopo principale quello di imparare a soffermarsi su quello che ci dice la nostra voce interiore e cercare di depositare dolcemente il suo messaggio su carta.
