Get inspired by all your senses to write for better wellbeing and positive mental health. We will look at motivational poetry and create our own mindful pieces exploring this year’s festival theme, In/Visible. 

This one-hour interactive workshop combines creative writing exercises, poetry readings and ideas taken from mindfulness. It allows the participants to discover that everyone can write! People are encouraged to use all their senses (vision, hearing, smell, taste, touch) to produce creative work. They will learn that writing is relaxing, supports the expression of thoughts and feelings, and improves focus and concentration. It supports positive mental health and wellbeing.
