Overcoming writers’ block with Dr Tanja Bastia

Are you stuck and frustrated with your writing? Would you like to experience what it’s like to write from a place of calm? This workshop will help you identify what stops you from writing. Tanja will draw on the Japanese therapeutic massage called Shiatsu, holistic acupressure, Qi Gong, and simple visualisations to help you identify what stops you from writing and give you some tools to help overcome writing blockages. 

Tanja is an experienced writer and teacher, and a qualified Shiatsu practitioner. She regularly supports students and researchers with their writing process. This workshop is open to writers of all levels of experience – expect some open discussion, wellbeing techniques, as well as writing tips. Tanja is a university lecturer, writer, and researcher, as well as a qualified Shiatsu and holistic acupressure practitioner.
