A Journaling Workshop for Caregivers
Wednesday, November 26
10 am. to 11 am. | Online | Registration required.
Journaling can be an important tool for improving emotional and psychological wellbeing. Journaling allows us the freedom to explore and express our feelings without judgement. This is important for caregivers, who often face guilt and other complicated feelings throughout our journey. Journaling can be our safe space to communicate whatever we choose in lots of different formats. It can be anything ranging from a couple of words through to lists, art, poetry, sound files, video and use of apps. This workshop will explore ways of journaling that could be the right fit for you and share a few tools. It will also provide a creative space for caregivers to connect.
