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.
