Processing Through Poetry: A Writing Workshop with Leisly Ann Roman
May 23 @ 12:00 pm – 1:30 pm
Join award-winning author & mental health advocate Leisly Ann Roman for a 2-Part interactive writing workshop in honor of Mental Health Awareness Month. We’ll use imagery & personification to give voice to our everyday emotions – particularly the most difficult & unpleasant ones – and practice utilizing poetry and/or journaling to cultivate healthy responses to these. We will also engage in gratitude journaling & create our own “On The Go” gratitude & coping skills cards to promote self-soothing & emotional regulation in moments of distress.
No prior writing/poetry experience required, open to all levels!
