Writing as Self-Care

Writing yourself into self-care

What better care it is than to write? 

Pick up a pen and let the words flow.

Feel the words , soft and slow,

A reason to heal , a reason to grow, 

A reason to write with all your might.


Grab a journal, grab a book,

No right or wrong, just start with a book.

Your heart, your mind, all set to play,

Writing will definitely brighten your day.


What’s on your mind? 

There is no holding back ,

On the page, just keep that ink intact . 

If you are feeling happy or perhaps sad,

Writing is a medicine that makes your heart glad.


When life gets tough, when stress runs high,

Pick up that pen, and give it a try.

You might just smile, feel light and free,

As you write your own self care recipe.


So what will you write today?

Let us take a pause, 

Whatever it will be, just write away !

Job well done, take a round of applause.

Example: The dog chased the ball. Here, the dog (subject) performs the action of chasing the ball (object). Active voice is concise and dynamic, emphasizing the doer of the action. It lends a sense of immediacy and energy to the text, which is why it is commonly used in storytelling, persuasive writing, and in...

How Writing Became My Sanctuary

A Journey with Words As a child, writing felt like magic. I remember sitting on the steps of my home with a notebook in hand, pouring my thoughts onto the page. The world around me became a canvas, and my pen was the brush painting vivid stories, poems, and letters. I would write about everything, from the the rustling leaves outside my window, the laughter of my family and friends, and even the stray cat that visited our backyard. Each word felt like a piece of me, capturing moments I never wanted to forget. Even now, as an adult, writing holds the same wonder. There is something about sitting under a tree or by the ocean, surrounded by the sounds of nature, that stirs my creativity. The gentle breeze, the chirping of birds, and the scent of fresh air become my muses. Writing outdoors feels like a dance with the earth, as if my words are in tune with its rhythms. Some of my favourite pieces were born during these quiet moments in nature. I would sit for hours, letting my thoughts flow...
