Cancer can be an incredibly challenging journey, both physically and emotionally. That’s why we’re excited to introduce the “Write to Heal Workshops,” a FREE online writing program generously underwritten by Stephen and Jane Hochberg. These workshops are designed exclusively for cancer patients and survivors, providing a safe and supportive space to explore the healing power of expressive writing.
Discover the Healing Power of Words:
Expressive writing has shown through scientific studies that while it may not cure, it can certainly heal. This workshop is open to individuals of all skill levels; whether you’ve never written before or you’ve always been passionate about it, you are welcome to join us.
Our focus is not only on the life-changing impact of a cancer diagnosis but also on the broader aspects of healing through the written word. As we navigate the uncertainties of life, our words can serve as a pathway to reclaim our voices, share our stories, and reconnect with our lives.
Key Workshop Details:
- Starting Date: November 2, 2023
- Duration: Four weeks, meeting remotely every Thursday (November 2, 9, 16, 30, 2023, with a break for Thanksgiving week)
- Time: 3 pm to 5 pm Mountain Time
