Writing the Sacred Self
Facilitator: Rev. Dr. Joanne Braxton

Spiritual life writing is a way of engaging in the transformative journey to one’s own sacred center and bringing together the pieces of one’s authentic self. Since the time of St. Augustine and perhaps even before, autobiography and life writing have been a bridge between spirituality and well-being, often a key element in self-care and spiritual discipline. Writing is healing for those who write; once the skills are learned, reflective writing and journaling become not only a life-long bulwark against stress and burnout, but a means of expressing the soul. One begins the journey anew each day; life remains exciting and fresh.
