Are you a healthcare worker looking for a way to re-connect with yourself and others? Are you in need of a space for creativity and reflection? If so, we hope you will join us as we lead an interactive and generative writing session with you in mind!
By coming, we will be engaged in close readings of poems and reflective writing as a means of:
- exchanging ideas,
- fostering creative expression,
- reflecting on professional practice, and
- building a strong sense of connection and community.
We will slow down the pace for deep breathing and calmness, and sharing with the hopes that you leave having experienced a sense of renewal that comes from creativity.
Take a moment for yourself.
(We are creating this session for healthcare workers only -- all roles and interdisciplinary -- and trust that, if you RSVP, this describes you.)
