Grief Journalling Workshop with Judy Reeves

Your Journal as Listener, Confidant, and Guide
Writing in our personal journals offers us a safe and private place to express our grief in a language that is our own. The open pages also invite us to explore what lies beyond our grief; not “getting over it,” but carrying it with us as we write to discover what now, what next? Here, we ask what we want, what we need, what might be; we allow ideas to take shape, possibilities to blossom, and dreams to emerge. At this event, participants are invited to bring pen and paper if they’d like to join in a few brief writing explorations.
