Redwood Resilience

Journaling for Organizations

Redwood trees show us that being connected and helping each other strengthens the grove.

Doing a Trees & Breathe journaling event is a healthy self-care outlet for your “grove” (group) to reconnect, reduce stress, and build strength. Your group may be professional, community, interest, a team, or any other way you define it!

Whatever your group and whatever your needs, I will custom-design a guided journaling event to meet them.

Why groups do guided journaling events:

Some groups want a self-care activity to increase calm for their members.

Others are looking for healthy outlets to ignite clarity for problem-solving.

Still, others want to enhance individual wellness and connection among group members.

And some, want all three!

Planning a guided journaling event for your group:

  • We’ll chat about the needs of your group.

  • You’ll choose the length and the location of the event. We can have an event indoors, outside, or online.

  • You’ll decide if you want any add-ons to the journaling portion, such as gentle movement, forest bathing, or conversation.

  • We’ll settle on a date and time.

  • I’ll design and deliver a journaling session tailored to your group’s specific needs.

  • I’ll guide your group through gentle calming activities and powerful journaling prompts to privately uncover deep thoughts.

WARNING: Session may result in clearer-minded and re-energized group members.

And a few more things:

🌳 Zero experience in journaling is required.

🌳 Affordability is a priority to me.

🌳 I love to brainstorm.

🌳 I’m excited to hear your ideas.

🌳 I’m dedicated to creating a powerful experience for your group!

    I couldn’t believe the difference in my thoughts between the beginning and the end of the [workshop]. I went from tired and not able to think clearly to energized, enthusiastic, and supported in an hour.

FAQs: Journaling for Organizations

  • No experience is required. As long as group members can use a pen and embrace new ideas, you’re good to go!

  • The events can be profound and useful for anyone who wants to gain a clearer mind. The sessions offer strategies for digging deep into your mind to reveal thoughts that are sometimes hidden. Knowledge of these thoughts can lead to increased clarity and self-awareness needed to make important decisions.

  • Absolutely! That’s why we chat first. We’ll have a conversation about what you are thinking and then target what will be best for your group.

  • No. You will keep your writing private to be honest with yourself. However, if we have an optional conversation time, members are free to share the impact of their experience.

  • Group sessions are immersive experiences where you will be focused on the words and sentences of your journaling. We don’t want to disrupt your members’ newly gained calm and clarity, so we will save optional questions and comments until the end of the session.

  • Everyone will need a writing book and a pen or pencil. No worries, I will send you a blurb with all the details about the session that you can send out to your members.

  • My journaling sessions are designed with adults in mind (aged 18+); however, I can design an appropriate session for younger people as long as they can participate as required.

  • Sure, as long as they have a stable Internet connection and their space is quiet, allowing them to immerse themselves in the session.

  • We’ll start with a conversation. Just click here to book a time that works for you and I’ll look forward to connecting!
