Creative Journal Workshop - KARLA MUIR
This is a writers' workshop with a difference. Karla explains:
Usually, the main purpose of writing is the product — here, it is the process which is at the centre of our attention. You can certainly use the techniques specifically to further your writing career, but the applications are potentially much broader than that. You can employ them for:
- problem solving
- to get in touch with your intuition
- to strengthen your creativity
- to get a healthier perspective on old issues, and
- in general, to get a more positive outlook on life.
They can also help to uncover layers of your subconscious mind. I have chosen six processes that were particularly helpful to participants of previous workshops. In nearly 40 years of journalling, I have learnt, adapted and developed the techniques I'm going to share with you. Self-help books, my studies of linguistics and psychology and my NLP training have provided many ideas and inspirations. Journalling is a great tool, and anyone can do it – you don't need any literary talents for it.
DATE: Saturday, 4 September, 9.30 am for 10:00 am start, to 4:00 pm.
VENUE: NEWC
COST: $50 members / $60 non-members
