M Duncan. #98185 Healing Minds and Hearts in Writing Writing is an empowering tool that frees minds and hearts. Writing has the power to heal, to create a connection with self and with others through ideas, thoughts and sharing of emotions.

Writers will engage in experiential writing, set writing goals, and will create shorter structured pieces and a longer piece as a culminating activity.
