OSHER 50 - Listening to Your Inner Voice: An Expressive Writing Workshop

"I don't know what I think until I write it down."- Joan Didion. Taking the time to listen to our inner voice can help guide us to make important decisions, boost our creativity, consider new opportunities, and help us clarify our values and purpose. We all have the ability to listen to our inner voice, but it often gets crowded out by our outer life and we rarely take the time to pause, reflect, and trust what it might be telling us. Writing can help! Writing can provide insight and change our perspective. By putting pen to paper, we turn off our inner critic, allowing us to make sense of our thoughts without edits or judgement. Through writing we can clear out the noise, delve deeper, and reveal the wisdom of our inner voice. In a relaxed and safe environment, we will explore the wisdom of our inner voice through short readings, writing prompts and writing-related discussions. All writing levels are welcome. No writing experience is necessary.
