Power of Voice — Poetry as a Tool for Wellness

Facilitated by Kristin Thompson & Sharon Lowe

Poetry includes not only the written words, but speaking these words aloud, giving them voice. 

Using the approach of our effective series, Poetry as a Tool for Wellness, this new session considers the place of our voice in bringing power to our words and healing to our world.

No experience with poetry or workshops is necessary to attend.

This stand-alone poetry circle is a wonderful introduction to the style of the the Poetry as a Tool for Wellness series. 

Poetry as a Tool for Wellness (PTW) is a culmination of over 20 years of ground-breaking practice utilizing poetry as a catalyst to enhance skills, affirm strengths, and nurture creativity in order to promote overall wellbeing. Piloted in settings focused on mental health, it has been found equally transformative and roundly received in a much broader context.

PTW is an ideal program for counselors, peer specialists, teachers, chaplains, healthcare/wellness coaches, community activists, support group facilitators, and anyone else interested in fostering a creative and therapeutic approach to wellness through the integration of Poetic Medicine into mental health and wellness programs.

For those who have completed the Poetry as a Tool for Wellness Facilitator Training this session packet and others are available for purchase.
