Synopsis

Designed to explore the world of words, "Let It Flow: Writing for Wellness" provides an overview of writing as a tool to promote optimum mental and emotional health. Dr. JoAnn Streeter Shade, a long-time social service provider and author, uses journaling, list-making, non-fiction writing, story-telling, and poetry to open artistic doors for the mental health services consumer as well as for those in the helping professions. Throughout these pages, creative writing exercises are joined with wise counsel from successful authors to encourage and affirm the fledgling writer. Used individually or with a writing coach or counselor, the power of the written word will offer restoration and hope when expressed with persistence and courage.
