Writing haiku, the art form of short poetry from Japan, is a great way to reset the brain, express emotions without using emotional language, and explore the wealth of talent for writing and communication which exists in each of us. Often, our thought processes are procedural in nature. We treat our lives and work as railroads to success. This workshop explores the structure and language of haiku, aiming to break the habit of procedural thought through techniques which capture the moment and nurture the brain’s natural tendency to make connections.
