Virtual Journal Workshop for Caregivers – Fall Session

Starts October 31, 2023 then every Tuesday until December 12, 2023
Time: 2:00 pm to 3:30 pm
Location: Virtual

PLEASE NOTE: We have closed registration for this Fall 2023 Season. 

The Journal Workbook is much more than a diary or collection of exercises. It is an integrated system of writing activities to access your feelings, life events and spiritual inclinations in an organized way”. – Bill Israel (The Journal Workshop facilitator)

Time Commitment: The 6 sessions (90 min) will take place on: Oct 31, Nov 07, Nov 14, Nov 21, Nov 28, and Dec 05 at 2:00 pm to 3:30 pm.

Description of Workshop: It is a private, safe, reflective writing process for family caregivers, focused on compassionate self-nurturing. Participants write privately in their individual, structured journal workbooks. Individuals write privately in a meditative, small group setting. Short periods of writing follow brief verbal instruction on personal life-event categories. No sharing or “verbal cross-talk” in the sessions. Short periods provided for participants to voluntarily read aloud in the “sacred space” of the workshop group. No special writing skills required.

What are the Benefits? Respite from effects of stress and fatigue. Non-judgmental introspection, self-understanding and meditation. No analysis or diagnosis. Improved somatic (body) awareness, emotional balance and spiritual resilience.
