Writing as Healing


Adult and Senior / Lifelong Learning -
Adult Enrichment 2025-2026

From the moment we're born, we begin telling ourselves stories about ourselves, our families, the world, our experiences, beliefs, and feelings. Writing helps us recognize our relationship to the stories we carry, from the subtle to the grandiose, as well as the ones we may be ready to let go. For centuries the curative effects of writing—alone and with others—have proven to be one of the greatest forms of healing and self-care there is. Explore the history of writing as healing, from past to present, with practice and prompts to deepen your writing and healing practices.
