Journal Writing: Caring for the Soul at Work with MELINDA BURNS
Cancelled

 

Monday February 28, 2004
7:30 pm to 9:30 pm
University of Guelph

 

Keeping a journal means keeping a place for ourselves in the rush of outer demands and work and family activities. In a journal we can stop and reflect, make room for feelings, clarify thoughts, and stay in touch with what is most important in our lives. Pausing with the "stuff" as well as the essence of your inner being can be especially helpful during times of transition, restlessness, or challenges at work. In this program we will explore beginning, continuing and deepening a journal through exercises in free intuitive writing, inner dialogues, and altered time. Come with pen and notebook, and a willingness to surprise yourself.

Melinda Burns, MA, is a writer and psychotherapist in private practice in Guelph. Her poems, fiction and essays have appeared widely in print, and on CBC radio. She teaches a series of classes and workshops called "The Writer's Way" and has been leading groups in writing and creative process for over 20 years. Her passion for writing flows into her work, inspiring and encouraging the creative spirit in each person. She offers one-to-one mentoring sessions and help with focusing, editing and completion of creative projects. You can reach Melinda at mbeburns@sympatico.ca.
