Join us for a captivating hour of journaling practice that will awaken creativity and foster personal growth hosted by Dr. Nicolas Bob of the Faculty and Staff Assistance Program (FSAP). 

Immerse yourself in three immersive 15-minute journaling sessions, each guided by Dr. Bob with prompts designed to ignite your imagination and well-being. Whether you're drawn to the prompts or inspired to write about your own reflections, this is your sacred space for self-expression.

Your journal entries remain entirely private, allowing you to connect with yourself and process without inhibition. Grab your favorite pen or pencil, along with a journal, and prepare to embark on a transformative journey.

This hour of journaling is designed for faculty, staff, residents, fellows, and postdocs at UCSF. No prior journaling experience is necessary—simply bring an open mind and a willingness to explore. Join us and unlock the benefits of journaling!
