Writing is the touching encounter with oneself. Writing can open new inner spaces and provide access to long-closed areas. It invites you to linger, explore, and feel. Writing is like a rendezvous with your own self: a gentle approach, a sense of wonder, a recognition. From this curious, exciting, sometimes quiet encounter, joy, lightness, cheerfulness, and ultimately healing can emerge. At your own pace, burdensome, heavy, or long-hidden topics can come to the surface and ultimately make their way onto the paper. Petra Rechenberg-Winter and Antje Randow-Ruddies present a variety of different interventions and suggestions that facilitate the journey inward through writing. A valuing and respectful attitude in the encounter with one's own self is crucial in this process.
