How many times have you heard over the past 5 years the value of Journaling? But, how many times have you thought, "But I don't know what to write". Well here is a "teaching Journal" as it were. Dr. Seaward leads the reader on a journey of self expression as a form of healing that helps even the most non-communicative person express on paper words from their soul. Give yourself a wonderful gift ... YOUR OWN WORDS!

I find this workbook to be very useful in my health promotion classes with nursing students. The exercises are clear, easy to use and meaningful to the students. I also use the exercises in my stress workshops for our graduated nurses. My favorites are the butterfly art therapy exercise and the journaling exercise. For the butterfly, I hand out new boxes of crayola crayons. I interpret the colors they have used. For the journaling exercise everyone gets a small, polished stone to describe. My participants have given excellent reviews and have written months later to tell me their butterflies hang on their refrigerator to remind them of their expression of feelings and they continue to enjoy journaling.
