Course Information:  Writing a memoir of your life can be a wonderfully fulfilling & healing process. Whether you aim for publication, write it for your offspring or yourself, shaping your story helps make sense of things & offers an opportunity to reflect on the deeper meaning of your life. This workshop will encourage special reflection on exploring spiritual meaning, but will also provide a safe, supportive, confidential space where you will find a voice, purpose, confidence & inspiration; tackle form, structure, storytelling; practise dialogue (& humour!); consider ethical issues; & review your experiences in a new & uplifting way.
