Postcards from the Edge:

Addressing Compassion/Covid Fatigue in Note Form

Perhaps you are too overwhelmed to read this? Let’s be brief: this workshop will address impacts, physical or emotional, personal or professional, of caring for human suffering. In notes. A creative writing workshop. With other hesitant people. Using poems as guides. Have a rest; write something. No experience necessary! 

 Goals

-- Learn five rules for writing that can be used to reflect on one’s work, relationships, and life

-- Engage with poetry as a tool for understanding and expressing challenges

-- Increase awareness of the impact of the professional on the personal, and the personal on the professional

-- Explore poetry and writing as practices of self-care
