"I looked always outside of myself to see what I could make the world give me instead of looking within myself to see what was there."

FAQ

Have questions?

  • What is the time commitment of DELVE? ๐Ÿ•ฐ ๐Ÿ‚

    DELVE needs just 2-3 hours per week and is entirely self-paced (there are no 'tests' and no need to โ€˜keep upโ€™ - this is your journey, done your way). Each week you will get a few short videos to watch, a weekly worksheet and time allocated for journalling. You can spend as little or as long as you want on this last bit, but it is where the most fun is to be had! ๐Ÿ˜„โœ๏ธ

  • Is there a live element of DELVE?

    This course originally ran live in 2021 and is now entirely self-study with NO live elements. You can fit all the prerecorded sessions around your other commitments with ease. Write your way. Go at your own pace. Enjoy the gentle journey.

  • For how long will I have access to the sessions and materials? ๐Ÿ“š

    You will have access to the course site for a minimum of one year, and in reality for the lifetime of the course's existence! You are also welcome to download and save the course materials (meaning you can have them forever!)

  • Do I need lots of journal writing experience to take this course? Or to purchase any special bits and bobs? ๐Ÿค”

    No and no! All you really need to take the course is a passion for/interest in journal writing, a pen and something to write on. You are invited to gather some creative supplies such as stickers, washi tape and/or coloured pens, but you can use what you already have if you would prefer not to buy new.
