Writing to Heal: What happens when we feel overwhelmed, our worlds spinning out of control? How can we write if it feels too much, too constant, too difficult? Inspired by the work of Dr. James W. Pennebaker, author Jennifer Lang will lead a workshop on Writing to Heal, putting our emotions into words, especially at times when words fail us. Through writing exercises--free write and epistolary and lists--we will explore Expressive Writing and strive to write our emotions.

Jennifer Lang is a San Francisco Bay Area transplant to Tel Aviv, where she runs Israel Writers Studio. In September 2023, she gave birth to her first book, Places We Left Behind: a memoir-in-miniature; in October 2024, she welcomed Landed: A yogi’s memoir in pieces & poses into a different world. A graduate of Vermont College of Fine Arts, Jennifer was an Assistant Editor at Brevity Journal.
