Journaling Workshop

Welcome to Our Journaling Workshop

Are you ready to take a profound step towards self-improvement and emotional health? Join us for a unique journey into the world of journaling. Our structured workshop is designed to introduce you to the power of writing and how it can be an essential tool in your wellness toolkit.

Session Details

• Week 1: Introduction to Journaling

"Every journey begins with a single step." Our first session will introduce you to the basics of journaling. We will explore how journal writing serves as a mirror reflecting your thoughts and emotions, facilitating a deeper understanding of your inner self. This session sets the groundwork by discussing various styles and techniques of journaling.

• Week 2: Creativity and Exploration: Harness Your Boredom!

"Be the author of your life." This session encourages you to unleash your creative potential through your journal. We'll use prompts and exercises designed to ignite your imagination and inspire deeper exploration of personal narratives and aspirations.

• Week 3: Writing for Wellness

"Take responsibility for yourself and your loved ones through reflection and journaling." In our third meeting, we delve into how journaling can enhance your mental health and emotional well-being. We will provide strategies to use writing as a way to manage stress, improve mood, and increase self-esteem.

• Week 4: Meaning and Purpose

"Write your way to a more meaningful life." Our final session focuses on using your journal to explore and affirm your life's purpose and values. You will learn how to set goals, reflect on personal growth, and document the journey towards fulfilling your aspirations.

• Refresher Session

After three months, we reunite to discuss progress, challenges, and new insights. This session is an opportunity to renew your commitment to journaling and to share your experiences with fellow participants.

Why Join the Journaling Workshop?

Journaling is more than just writing down your thoughts. It's a powerful practice that offers numerous benefits:

• Supports Mental Health: Regular journaling leads to improved mood, lessened anxiety, and better stress management.

• Enhances Creativity: It pushes the boundaries of your imagination and helps you think outside the box - maybe even finding the headspace to intentionally think at all!

• Builds Emotional Resilience: Writing about challenges and feelings helps process emotions and fosters resilience.

• Promotes Self-Discovery: Regular entries provide insights into your behavioral patterns and thought processes. Be intentional how you lead your life and how you create and live relationships to loved ones, but also at work and in other every day interactions. Start to live your life as the person you would like to be.

Spaces are limited. Secure your spot today and start your journey towards a fuller, more reflective life. Write the next chapter of your life with intention and insight.

Below the link to our online calendar, please consider booking the 4 weekly sessions and the “refresher” in September all in one go (you may cancel >48 hours before workshops with your unique login of the online calendar below).

Bring your journal & pen (if you don’t have a journal one will be provided for you); what you write/wrote will stay always with you and confident - it’s more about showing how it looks and works to the other participants and if something of value comes along: writing something in it.
