Escaping Block and Burnout: Mental Health, Mindfulness & Manuscripts

Description:

Escaping Block and Burnout: Mental Health, Mindfulness & Manuscripts created and presented by Tara Michener, MA, LPC, NCC, RYT 200 (Author)

The process of writing can be therapeutic but when we do it for work it can feel like the opposite. The importance of maintaining a healthy routine, positive outlook and wellness regimen is key to overall success in writing and in life in general.

This interactive webinar includes activities and exercises for coping with anxious thoughts, reflection ideas and more. 

At the end of this session the participant should be able to:

-identify at least ten disruptive elements to their writing routine

-create a writer's block/burnout toolkit plan

-understand the definition of mindfulness and how it pertains to the writing process

This fun and educational webinar is perfect for the skilled published author as well as for someone brand new to the field of writing.
