Creative Writing for Mental Health: Guided Workshop
Advertisement
Welcome to BYKE Academy where we advocate mental health and a positive mindset. This writing group is a small exclusive event for anyone who wants to unwind and release trapped thoughts and emotions.
We also want to establish right away that this is about unearthing and externalizing, not editing or making "perfect art." No one gets put on the spot, and you can control how much you want to share.
........
✍️ What to expect:
Writing prompts and instructions will be given by the instructor, who she will guide everyone to express their emotions through metaphors and third-person perspectives.
Warm up
**(Please arrive 15 minutes early)
There will be 3 MAIN prompts, all guided by the instructor, and reflection followed by discussions. You can control how much you want to share and no one will ebe coerced.
There will be networking afterwards for people to make real friendships and connections.
🌿 What you will gain from this workshop:
-- Shift from a witness of your past into the author of your story.
-- Gain agency over your history by changing your perspective.
-- Pull heavy memories out of the body and onto the page.
