Welcome to Write.Your – Journaling Starter Workshop.
This online writing workshop offers 10 sessions designed to help you incorporate writing into your daily routine as a tool for organizing your thoughts, connecting with your emotions, and tuning into your intuition—whether to start your day or before you “meet the world.”
Throughout the next 10 writing sessions, you’ll have the opportunity to explore and experiment with different prompts and writing tools.
Each session is designed to encourage freeform writing and journaling. Our Write.Your tools, prompts, and tips are always available to guide you toward making writing a healthy daily habit.
We’d love to hear from you! Feel free to write to us about what worked for you and what didn’t—we value your thoughts and feedback.
Happy writing!
Noa and the Write.Your Team
Before you start writing with our workshop, here’s a few answers to popular questions we usually get.
Do you have to write in the mornings?
You don’t have to write in the mornings. You can. I journal every morning, after my two girls go to school. I go to my office, I make coffee and I sit and journal. But that’s me. And you might have a different routine. These sessions are built to let you write whenever you have a few minutes. All you need is about 20 minutes. Use the sessions for any hour of the day. Write during your lunch break, or save it for the evening.
What is a writing prompt? Sometimes it’s an exercise, sometimes a coaching question, and sometimes the beginning of a sentence that leads into the writing.
What if the prompt doesn’t speak to you? This is the time to rebel against me. In any writing groups or coaching sessions, I remind my clients and students that it’s allowed and totally fine to rebel against the prompts. To explore what comes. An image, a sentence, a feeling, the beginning of a topic burning inside.
The prompts are the thread that pulls you inward into writing, and you’re invited to use them or turn them into your own. I also include three sessions with bonus prompts to help you find the right one for the state of mind you’re in.
Do you have to share what you wrote with others?
Oh no. This is truly for your eyes only. This is like an intimate date with your heart, mind and soul. Sharing with others can lead to fears and blocks regarding criticism, judgments, fear that you might not “write good” and other thoughts. Let yourself be totally free from these blocks.
One last thing, should you write in a notebook or on the computer? In most cases, the notebook is the address, and I recommend at least trying to work with it, even for those not accustomed to it. There’s true magic in the connection between thoughts, emotions, the hands that write, and the encounter with the simple page. And yet, for those who feel it’s a barrier preventing them from writing, you can open a file on the computer. It’s really fine.
Lets begin.
