Kreatives Und Therapeutisches Schreiben: Ein Arbeitsbuch

Writing is at once an expedition into ones own soul, a careful approach to ones inner world and ones environment; it also helps in the development of personality, allowing relevant conflicts in life to be approached and worked through. Creative and therapeutic writing is an intensive way to observe and experience things, to change ones usual way of seeing things, to expand ones horizon. This volume introduces techniques such as imagination and dreams for just this purpose. Everyone can write; no literary or linguistic skills are prerequisite to beginning. Rather, everyone has his or her own way of expressing things. This workbook contains a number of writ-ing exercises and tutorials for use by poetry therapists, psychotherapists and writing instructors. It also supports attempts at poetic self-analysis.
