Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this writing class:

Writing can be a powerfully healing and transformative path. Join Diana Raab, author of Writing for Bliss: A Seven-Step Plan for Telling Your Story and Transforming Your Life, on a journey of writing as a path to bliss. Writing blissfully is about being mindful of the messages of your heart and tapping into your authentic voice. In this inspiring workshop, we will experiment with different forms of storytelling, such as prose and poetry, as a path to self-discovery. You will learn that only you can tell your story and that everyone has a different emotional truth. Come write the story you’ve always wanted to write. Raab will share her own creative process, as well as that of other esteemed writers. You will discover how to find the courage to write, how to create a sacred space, how to cultivate self-awareness, how to speak your truth while learning about the art and power of storytelling. The art of poetry writing will be demystified, as will the steps involved in publishing your work.

    Anonymous review on 7/1/2018
    The course was precisely as it was described, the teacher was well prepared, personable and dealt with each student individually. The class-size was sufficient for stimulating conversation but not so large just to be unwieldy. The other participants had interesting experience and input to share. I highly recommend it.

    Reviewed by Darrell B. on 7/1/2018
    Very helpful. The instructor was very personable and professional. The space was good as was the pacing of the course. I'd attend another by this instructor and also others from The Open Center. I got a lot out of it. It was useful and I left stimulated and motivated. My wife and I took it together and I'm sure we will continue to use the material and discuss.
