Our lives are written in the words we use. Those words shape our thoughts and opinions, our hopes and dreams, and the events and circumstances we experience. Some might argue that these things are fixed, as a writer I know they are not. I know that when we change the words we use, we change lives, I’ve seen it happen many times over the years and I’ve experienced it myself.

“Our real selves are hidden and our life’s journey is one of reclaiming who we really are and releasing the stone casings to reveal the gold underneath”

If you are ready to change your life and are willing to reflect honestly on the words you use to define yourself and events and circumstances of your life then take a 21-day, deep-dive inner journey through The Way of the Writer.

On this adventure you will explore:

• The words you use and the meanings you give them

• The story of your life so far

• How to use your interpretation of events and circumstances as a stepping stone to change

• How to create a different story for your future

• How words, language and stories have created the life you live

• How to change the script and the part you play in the story of your life

• How to connect the dots of how you view your life and change your perspective

This course includes:

• Daily writing prompts Monday to Friday for three weeks via the website, the workbook or the emails.

• Downloadable workbook

• Introductory audio recording

• An audio recording for each week of the journey.

Please note: This course was originally delivered live online in November 2020.

Introduction

You can’t experience the full joy of life until you are able to love yourself, and what often gets in the way of this essential step is the way we think and talk about who we are, what we do and why we do it.

The Way of the Writer uses the tools of language and writing to uncover the missing links between events and our current thoughts about ourselves. On this journey, you will need to be aware of the internal dialogue that takes place between the YOU you think you are, and the still small voice that resides inside all of us that is who we really are.

It is entirely possible that strong feelings will bubble up seemingly out of nowhere as you journey through the next three weeks. You may find yourself thinking something is nonsense or wrong, and I would urge you to accept this as a normal part of the process of uncovering what’s been hidden for such a long time.

Over the next three weeks you will be taking a deeper look at how thoughts rule your experience of life and that often what helps change this is simply becoming aware of what’s happening. Often, there is no need to ‘do’ anything.
