BIPOC Write to Heal Session

Phiroozeh Petigara

Learn concrete writing tools plus grounding techniques to write your personal story. Learn also to work with your inner critic. 

*This session is for BIPOC folks (black, indigenous, people of color). Share this safe space to record, reflect, heal.Whether you want to write your story for personal exploration and healing or you’ve been thinking of sharing your story in written or spoken form, writing your story is healing. It is empowering.But when it comes to writing down our stories, we are our own worst critics. We think, “who wants to hear my story?” or “I’m not a writer.” We silence ourselves before we’ve even had a chance to explore what we might have to say. The good news: humans are wired for story. It’s how we understand the world around us. The even better news: stories help us heal. Sharing our stories, hearing others’ stories, it’s all part of individual and collective healing.If you have been curious about exploring writing as healing, this series is for self-identifying people of color to explore our stories in safe, community space.No prior writing experience necessary. ***********Materials To Bring:This is a virtual event. Please have with you your favorite journal, pens, and/or device you love to write on. Please make sure your device is charged up. Make sure you have a quiet work space for the full 3 hours.
