National Workshops For Enhancing Your Writing Skills

National Workshops For Enhancing Your Writing Skills

 

Progoff Intensive Journal Program

http://www.intensivejournal.org

Overcome writers' block
Spur creativity
Tap into your intuitive side
Enhance your autobiography/memoir

Experience a nationally-recognized process to further your writing and creativity, and learn a tool for self-development. Connect with your life experiences to gain new awareness, which provides the raw material for writing your memoir or autobiography.

Workshops sponsored by many writing guilds and used by successful authors to boost creativity and beat writers' block:

"[The] workshop made a tremendous impact on my writing... the journals and texts written by Progoff are powerful tools in the creative process."
Judy Collins
Artist, Writer, Entertainer

Donald Spoto, a successful biographer, used our method to overcome writers' block:
"[The] method was central to the beginning and flourishing of my career as a biographer... Progoff's creative insights and practical methods of deepening one's spiritual and creative life should be made available to everyone."

The writing exercises, conducted in a deepening atmosphere of silence and privacy, help you access your inner process - creating a flow, momentum, and energy. The method is also a powerful tool for self-development, to help you through transitions and gain awareness about your life. The process integrates journal writing, meditation, dreamwork, and holistic approaches to life. Read more about how the Intensive Journal method aids writing on our website at http://www.intensivejournal.org/specialized/writers.php.

Dr. Ira Progoff, known as the "grandfather of journal writing," was a philosopher, depth psychologist, scholar of C.G. Jung, and award-winning author. The program's book, At a Journal Workshop, was selected as one of the 65 most significant books on psychology and spirituality of the 20th century by Common Boundary magazine.

Workshops nationwide and year-round.
