WORDS HEAL. IN TIMES OF CRISIS – AND AFTER A CRISIS – WRITING CAN BE A FRIEND

We all deal with difficult situations in different ways. For me, writing always helps.

Whether that means journaling to get something out of my head, penning poetry to find beauty in the darkness, exploring ideas on paper or channelling my fire into a new book, I always find that words are my medicine.

This short online class will equip you with tools to help process some of the complex feelings that bubble up in a crisis, stabilise your ship and find reasons to be hopeful. It will also help you hone your writing into something deeply personal which will help you connect with others.

Includes classroom access until October 31, 2027

We are all grieving something. Lost loved ones, lost freedoms, lost jobs, lost rites of passage that will never take place, old pieces of our lives that will never return in the same form, because of things that have happened.

Whatever life has thrown at us, we can be sure that healing will take a long time, but we can begin where we are, putting words onto paper, and letting our hearts speak.

That’s why I have created ‘Words Heal’, a short writing class, offering gentle guidance, inspiring prompts and an insight into the writing life, to help you write your way through this, whatever ‘this’ is. Sending much love to you.

Beth includes a host of insights into her personal experience writing books and sharing her heart on many other platforms.

• Fourteen exercises to calm, inspire and stretch you.
