There is a science behind therapeutic narrative writing. You will be lead in a safe and relaxing environment with writing prompts, group discussions and more. Come and discover the power of words that are inside you and leave feeling freer, happier and on a lifelong journey of writing and exploring with words.
You will be lead in this writing workshop by Jhilmil Breckenridge, who uses this approach in the UK, and learn the science behind it and experience the magic for yourself. Writing will be interspersed with mindfulness exercises and you will learn about the "how and what" of mindfulness as well as ways to manage common stressors associated with an urban lifestyle. You will also be immersed in visualizations as well as art therapy, using the five senses, bird watching, and opportunities to use the spa and other facilities.
This two day retreat is set at Karma Lakelands, an eco-responsible golf resort in Gurugram set on 300 acres of lush green. Come, treat your senses and get away from the busyness of the city.
