Healing Through Words is a guided tour on the journey back to the self, a cathartic and mindful exploration through writing. This carefully curated collection of exercises asks only that you be vulnerable and honest, both with yourself and the page. You don’t need to be a writer to take this walk; you just need to write—that’s all. Four chapters for self-discovery: Hurting, Loving, Breaking, and Healing Hurting: The first chapter explores themes around trauma with exercises designed to consider your experiences and confront pain within the safety of your writing.

Whether it's a falling out with a friend, a romantic relationship ending, or a dream that doesn't work out—grief and heartache follow. This section's exercises help you move through these experiences and reclaim your story. Healing: This final chapter is about recognizing the value in yourself. Exercises in this section will ask you to reflect on ideas like why you're worthy of joy and how you are brave. Healing is a lifelong process and these exercises can be revisited over and over again.
