creative recovery and self-care for writers

“I believe it’s important to learn how “real” writers write when they work. And to model their methods as we’re learning to work. I believe that it’s essential for us to understand the creative process and the stages of the process so that we can work with it, rather than against it." — Louise DeSalvo

CREATIVE RECOVERY AND SELF-CARE FOR WRITERS … $55

NEXT OFFERING: TBD

DESCRIPTION:

As writers, it’s vital that we nurture our creativity through self-care so we can work with our natural rhythms and not against them. This workshop addresses the overlooked work of cultivating the discernment, mindset, and habits necessary to sustain us through the emotional challenges of the creative life. In this class, you will work through writing exercises that identify limiting beliefs, clarify your needs and motivations, and rejuvenate your creative process. You will work on the exercises individually and be encouraged to share your discoveries, challenges, questions and insights with fellow writers. This workshop is ideal for writers struggling with critical self-talk, burnout, creative blocks, perfectionism and procrastination. Participants will come away with techniques and strategies that support them in bringing their most authentic selves to the page.
