As a Rural Resilience Officer in the Australian Outback said to us: “psychologists are always telling us to write things down – but we don’t know where to start”.

Here’s where you start.

Over ten years, IWWI founder Dr Stephanie Dale has developed a range of wellbeing-through-writing programs and workshops using writing as an effective and immediate health and wellbeing resource.

We live in a literate society. Almost everyone can write. Almost everyone has accessible to the necessary tools: pen and paper.

This potent health and wellbeing resource is at just about everybody’s fingertips.

All that’s outstanding is the necessary guidance, encouragement and support to begin.

 

Bespoke training programs available.

Contact us to discuss the right program for you and your organisation.

Learn evidence-based techniques and practices for guiding clients and staff to good health and wellbeing through writing.

Benefits of using pen and paper as a health and wellbeing resource include:

  • prepare for challenging or difficult workplace meetings in advance
  • manage challenging emotions during meetings
