What is Wellbeing?
Wellbeing can be described as feeling good and functioning well across all parts of your life. Wellbeing is strongly linked to feeling happy and satisfied with life. There are many ways to describe and build wellbeing that are personal to you.
Why Poetry and Writing?
Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.
So said the poet, Robert Frost. They are words we can live by to support our wellbeing. Reading the right poem at the right time can surface self-knowledge that supports our wellbeing. Exploring insights in writing helps to solidify and make visible core elements of our inner life that contribute to our wellbeing.
What do I need to get started?
An open mind and a willingness to explore the best of the science of wellbeing using poems and writing prompts.
And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.
