This is a course for all those dealing with anxiety related issues and have a zest to pursue creative writing but may not be sure where to exactly begin their journey from.

3. How to begin poetry writing?

4. The various poetic devices

5. Impact of poetry on mental health

You must have heard about the benefits of journalling before and I heard them too but to be honest, I found journalling quite monotonous at times and sometimes I felt resistance towards journalling my thoughts and emotions but with poetry my emotions, they just flew out of me and I have learnt that it is important to let go of your negativity and your negative emotions rather than suppressing them otherwise they will negatively impact our minds as well as our bodies so therefore, I began with this journey and I really really wanted to share it with others like me!!
