CREATIVE WRITNG – A POSITIVE ROUTE TOWARDS GOOD MENTAL HEALTH AND GENERAL WELL-BEING

Are you feeling depressed and anxious, struggling to cope with the stresses and
strains of modern life? Why not join us at Long Eaton Library for our NEW writing
for well-being sessions? Research confirms that writing expressively is therapeutic,
relaxing and good for you, boosting self-confidence and feelings of well-being,
Whether you’ve never written anything but shopping lists before, or been a secret
scribbler for years, come and be inspired by music, location, colour, language,
essential oils, and the seasons. Begin a well-being journal, a short story, or a memoir
about your life, become a diarist or explore your poetic self with tips and support
from an experienced tutor, Chrissie Hall.

Our sessions are relaxed, friendly and informal, suitable for all ages (Over 16s) and
abilities, if you need to bring a writing buddy along to help you access these sessions
please contact us. One session will follow on from the next. You will need to commit
to the whole course although allowances will be made for holidays, ill-health or
caring responsibilities. Places must be booked in advance. A small charge of £2 00p
per session will be collected on the day.
