Course description
Currently we are living through an extraordinary time in world history, where all the familiar
norms of our known existence have been turned upside down by a global pandemic. For each
of us, living through this state of lockdown, our sense of security has been shattered, our
inner resilience tested. We wonder if life will ever return to normal. Yet inherent in this
situation, some are calling it a ‘dangerous opportunity,’ is a potential gift. Through writing a
daily journal you can begin to make sense of what is happening and through the act of
reflection, observation and contemplation, create a new rhythm and sense of balance that will
help you deepen your experience of the present. When lockdown is over your journal will
contain a record for future generations, while the writing will be firmly established as a
practice to take into the future.
