Journaling is a wonderful and creative way to work through current life and emotional issues. We have provided this workshop to help you to get the most from your writing.
Members can use this resource either in their own handwritten journals, or online journals… or there is a private forum on CS Forums dedicated specifically to regular members journaling threads. (Access is considered after 16 weeks of regular posting! – we apologise for the long wait, but it is necessary to keep this sensitive forum safe!)
