Heart of Writing,Â
with Vishwam HeckertÂ
 Join LIVE September 2026
What is this course?
You are warmly invited to join a series of heart-based workshops designed to help your writing flow. Writing is a wonderful way to encourage our creativity and critical thinking, to help us tune into our unconscious patterns and beliefs, and to express ourselves clearly in challenging times. Whether you write for yourself, for those around you, or for a wider audience, the Heart Of Writing offers practical, meditative techniques for writing in a way that opens minds and touches hearts. Each session we will share heart meditation and space for free writing to flow. You can choose whether or not to share what you wrote or about your experience of the writing.
No experience of writing or meditation is necessary. Everyone is welcome to experience the Heart Of Writing.

Testimonials for Vishwam
"What an absolute gem of a find Vishwam’s writing groups are. I was drawn to attend Vishwam’s writing group, because I liked the sound of the mix of heart meditation and creative writing. I was intrigued, but I wasn’t prepared for the difference in my writing, when written from the heart centre. Somehow, I hadn’t made that connection before, with my writing. But what a distinct and palpable difference it is! I was seeking something. I didn’t know it was my own heart."
Lavinia, Psychospiritual Psychotherapist and Nature Therapist
“In this world it is so hard to take the time to pause and just be, to allow one's authentic self to communicate with others and most importantly with ourselves. In this course Vishwam provided the space to do just that. To stop for a moment and just be, to experience the calm and the quiet and then let the words flow out onto our pens or our computers.This course has been an experience of growing and sharing, and in the words of self and others to find connections and metomorphosis. I cannot wait for the next one.”

"…a wonderful 6-week course with Vishwam Heckert and his big heart. A lovely gentle zoom activity from the quiet of one’s own home with two meditations and space for writing and sharing if we wanted to. From the first week I felt more connected and enjoyed the flow state and ease of writing which comes from an open heart. Grateful for the space to meditate, create and share with kind people in a totally non-judgemental environment. Very healing for any old wounds around education / writing / performing etc. I didn't force myself to produce poetry or anything and it was ok. I've shed the need to deliver or perform or strive for positive feedback from clients or anyone else. Despite the high standard of writing in the group it was a joy to just share the few words that came. Highly recommend."
