SUMMARY:Optimistic Writing Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Writing is an excellent way to change our perception of certain moments in our life\, a way to transform them into supporting elements. Optimistic writing is an autobiographical mode of writing\, leading us to focus more on all the little happy events of our daily life\, even the least perceptible ones. \nThe goal is not to learn how to write in a specific literary style\, but to learn how to shift our gaze away from our problems and to get used to approaching life with gratitude. \nPutting the words on the paper allows us to better anchor positive emotions in our body. Then follows a moment of sharing with the group\, because happiness is amplified when it is shared. \nThis workshop helps develop: \n\nSelf confidence\nImagination and creativity\nA better perception of our life and our environment\n\nFree program. Registration required. Register online\, in-person\, or by phone at (416) 394-5120.
