Summer Groups -- Drop In and 5 week sessions!
Description of Writing for Healing and Joy Groups
In this online Writing for Healing and Joy Workshop we will create a safe and supportive environment for you to explore your experiences through the written word. Through writing we discover and can recover parts of ourselves. Writing taps into our wise unconscious, where hidden resources often reside. A favorite quote is “How do I know what I think until I see what I say?” (E.M. Forster) Through writing we have a chance to understand our stories and perhaps rewrite our stories.
No writing experience necessary!
During each session, prompts will be offered as the springboard for in-session writing. Sharing will be encouraged but not required, with time to reflect on and appreciate each other's words. Prompts will also be offered for your own writing between sessions. While writing is therapeutic, this is not a formal therapy group. The intent in this group is to "hitch your unconscious mind to your writing arm." (Dorthea Brande)
One aspect of this group that cannot be adequately conveyed but must be experienced, is the warmth and authentic connection that happens when we write in community and have an opportunity to be seen and heard. This is where the true healing and joy happen.
Enrollment is limited to 8

"We are all connected to one another and to the mystery at the heart of the universe through our strange and marvelous ability to create words. When we write, we create, and when we offer our creation to one another, we close the wound of loneliness and may participate in healing the broken world. Our words, our truth, our imagining, our dreaming, may be the best gifts we have to give.”
