The Provincetown Public Library, the Vineyard Haven Public Library, and the Brooks Free Library are excited to host a special journaling program with Lara Tupper to help you meet your self-care New Year goals.
Whether you have enjoyed journaling for years, never considered it or are somewhere in-between, please join us as we explore the value of journaling for wellness. A journaling practice can help us articulate thoughts and challenges on the page during trying times. This workshop includes a brief discussion about the health benefits of journaling, short and sweet freewriting exercises and tips about how to sustain greater self-compassion and self-awareness through writing. All are welcome.
A graduate of the Program for Writers at Warren Wilson College (MFA Creative Writing), Lara Tupper taught at Rutgers University for many years and now presents private writing workshops (online and in person). For ten years she was a faculty member at Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health, where she led journaling workshops and retreats for thousands of guests seeking wellness practices. She is founder of Swift Ink Stories, which offers private manuscript guidance and tutorials, and the award-winning author of three books (a short story collection, Amphibians, and the novels Off Island and A Thousand and One Nights). @laratupper and www.laratupper.com
