Releasing Pain, Creating Joy & Healing
Dominique James
May 13, 2020
Inspired by a self-love & self-worth exercise led by Cassidy Stratton
Prewriting:
- The thing you want to release
- The things you’ve overcome
- The things that have helped you heal
- The things you’ve accomplished or achieved or attained, that you desire but at one point didn’t believe were possible
Source Material:
- “Here” by Aracelis Girmay
Prompt: Make a map of the things you need to heal from and the growth and joy you’ve already attained, bonus if you repeat the word “here”
