Beyond Journalism
Posted by: Continuing Education
Details:
Learn to use writing as a way to access inner thoughts, explore them with impassioned curiosity, and set them free. Through the simple and pleasurable practice of Proprioceptive Writing® (PW), you will learn to use writing as a tool for deep thinking. Everyone thinks, but many thoughts dwell below the surface of expression. When you “hear yourself think” by slowing down the expression of thought through writing, thoughts evolve. Personal intelligence expands. You become more knowing, more useful to yourself. Deep thinking through PW is a creative way to come face-to-face with the thoughts that influence your life profoundly. Like prayer, deep thinking demands openness and undivided attention; it requires the different facets of the mind to work together as a whole, producing a healthful, life-affirming attitude and a sense of greater mental space. Course #: 5004 Friday, 5:30-8:30 p.m. Saturday, 10:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. Sunday, 2:00-5:00 p.m. |
