Writing for Resilience
Writing for Resilience is an inspirational workbook designed to improve your resilience and well-being through poetry, self-reflective writing and practical activities.
Using the words of published and unknown poets as a springboard for writing, this book can help you to overcome adversities and explore more positive ways of responding to life’s challenges.
Charmaine Pollard has extensive experience in implementing therapeutic writing programmes in a wide range of settings. She has used this expertise to produce a book which invites the reader to learn and grow through an array of writing exercises.
This book will be essential reading for anyone interested in using writing and creativity as an outlet for self-expression, for problem-solving and, ultimately, to develop a deeper understanding of themselves.
"I am delighted to endorse this book by Charmaine Pollard. As soon as I started reading it I felt that I was in safe hands. For many years, she has brought her skills, knowledge and personal qualities to groups, empowering people to find the confidence and resilience to lead more fulfilling lives. This book will enable many more to experience the power of the techniques she has developed."
