Writing for Wellbeing
Writing for Wellbeing
Writing for Wellbeing is a 10 week programme. Each week builds thematically on the one before, taking the writers on a journey that encourages authenticity, freedom and hope.
Each session is two hours long with plenty of time to socialise and drink tea and coffee built in.
Activities include a warm-up such as creating a human knot for the theme of relating together with a series of writing exercises and group sharing to explore the theme of the week.
Writing exercises might involve a prompt like a piece of music, a quote or an image to explore in writing and might involve writing independently or collaboratively.
- Writers are encouraged to share but not pressured
- Everything personal stays in the room
- Workshops are a safe space
