Share your experience
Stayed at a centre, joined a retreat, served in the kitchen? A few words or a whole story: we’d love to hear from you.
- 1Tell us
A few words, a longer story, or an idea you’d like to write about.
- 2We read every one
The centre’s team edits lightly and sends you the final version to approve.
- 3It’s published
With your name, as you choose. A story becomes a Community story on the blog.
Before you write
Your own experience, in your own words: what you came for, what happened, what stayed with you. Small moments are often the best stories. You don’t need to be a writer; we’ll help with the rest.
- Claims that a practice, ritual or visit cured or treated an illness, or promises of results.
- Other people’s private details, or photos of people who haven’t agreed.
- Criticism of named people, fundraising appeals, political or commercial content.
- Anything you didn’t write yourself.
The team at the centre reads everything. We may shorten a story or tidy the wording, and we may add a title and photos. You’ll see the final version and approve it before anything is published.
Choose how you’re named: full name, first name only, or not at all. For a longer story we’ll invite you to create a free writer profile, with your name, a photo and a line about you, which also lets you write for us again.
Send up to three photos you took yourself. If people can be recognised in them, please make sure they’re happy to be included.
You can ask us to take your words down at any time. Email the centre and we’ll remove them.
