All Day Writing Workshop
Discover how you can use writing for healing and hope!
Those of us in it know that grief can overwhelm us. Writing about our emotions calms our nerves, lowers our heart rate, and decreases our blood pressure. The tool of writing through the pain of heartache provides a respite for our sorrow and coats us with a soothing balm. No wonder writing has been called an essential tool for healing.
