Journaling has been proven to have a positive effect on mental health. This course will provide an opportunity for you to learn how to start journaling as a means to maintain your wellbeing. You will discover the proven benefits of journaling and have the chance to experiment and practice some of the recognised techniques suggested. You will discover a range of activities and prompts including the art of reflection and free writing allowing you to connect to your emotions in a new light.
Please ensure you let the College know at the time of booking if you have any dexterity issues or other concerns around using smaller pieces of equipment. Our crafting sessions often use equipment that may be more challenging to use with dexterity issues (such as pencils, pastels, sewing equipment or paintbrushes) and if informed in advance, we are able to make our sessions fully accessible for those with additional crafting support needs.
