Writing is more than simply a way to communicate ideas to others: it is a tool that we can use for healing, empowerment, and self-discovery. This expanded nine-week course explores a variety of popular writing genre and techniques for using writing as a healing art. Each lesson provides insights into a useful technique, a writing prompt designed to promote self-healing, helpful tips to motivate you and get your creative juices flowing, and suggested inspirational readings.

Upon successful completion of the course, you should be able to:

• Know first-hand how writing can be used as a powerful tool for healing and to bring about a positive transformation in your life.

• Analyze and make better sense of your thoughts and feelings in day-to-day living.

• Explore ways that you can turn hard-to-manage emotions into logical, balanced and healthy feelings.

• Use description, arguments, wild thoughts, and colorful emotions to control your future.

• Constructively build on plans and dreams to achieve a better tomorrow, a brighter future.

• Learn how to tap the healing power of memoir writing.

• Understand the power of forgiveness and how it can you move on without bitter grudges.

• Examine the root causes of anger and how to deal with it in positive, healthy ways.

• Explore your innermost feelings about love and how it is shaping your present and future.
