Voices of the Heart: Life Review Journaling

June 9, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am

Sign-up/registration is required; please see below.*

Helping a loved one capture their personal life story can be a deeply fulfilling bonding experience between a caregiver and the person they care for. In the process, we come to understand our loved one and ourselves in a new way. This workshop will introduce a life review journaling workbook called “Voices of the Heart” created by our partners at Big Bend Hospice. A copy of the journal will be provided to each participant, and they will learn tips and strategies for life review interviewing of a loved one.

This workshop is free and open to anyone in the community and sign-up is required. To register, please email contact@caregiverrenewal.org with “VOH” and the date of the workshop in the subject line or call 850-353-0280. A Caregiver Renewal Institute staff member will confirm your registration.

As part of our time together during the Life Review presentation, we are asking each participant to come prepared to share a cherished memory or favorite family anecdote that is a part of their own family’s legacy. Maybe it’s a funny story that is recounted every time the family is gathered for holidays? Or, it could be a personal remembrance from your childhood that your own family may not know? Whatever the special story that is in your heart, we would look forward to hearing it. This is a completely optional activity, only if you would enjoy participating. It will not impact how much you receive from the Life Review presentation.
