Journaling can serve as a powerful release valve for the internalized pressure and stresses of everyday life. In this live webinar you will delve into the transformative journey of the journal. Participants will enjoy an overview of journaling techniques and their corresponding therapeutic properties, and learn how this can help clients to become more joyful and connected to themselves and others.

 

This webinar will also explore the primary physical and psychological benefits of the “process journal” for improving and maintaining mental health. Participants will learn how to maintain motivation for a journaling practice, as well as actionable techniques for fostering permanent habits of self-care for clients between sessions and after termination. Much like adding memory to an overloaded computer, this evidence-based therapeutic program offers fast and effective relief from mental and emotional overwhelm by enhancing the “processing power” of the mind and consciousness.
