Writing through life’s turning points

By: HAA Admin

Writing Workshop Led by Jo Eastop

Life rarely stands still. Whether you’ve changed jobs, retired, moved home, welcomed a new baby, experienced bereavement, watched children leave the nest, or are navigating any other major shift, transitions can stir up complex emotions.

This gentle, supportive workshop with Jo Eastop offers space to explore those feelings through short, accessible writing activities designed to promote wellbeing. No writing experience is needed, just curiosity and a willingness to pause and reflect.

Research by Pennebaker & Evans suggests that ‘writing seems beneficial when you are trying to make sense of an event you don’t yet understand.’

Through guided exercises, you’ll discover how writing about emotional experiences can help you process change and find clarity.
