Everyone wants to make a difference in this world, to be understood and to be remembered. What would it be worth to craft an unforgettable keepsake; a gift that will be cherished above all other gifts by you and that special person receiving the gift… A gift of a lifetime…a legacy letter! An updated 3,500-year-old tradition, a legacy letter conveys your values, stories and wisdom to the next generation as a beautiful letter or book. Younger people can also create a Tribute Legacy Letter, explaining what legacy you received from someone, and many other specialty Legacy Letters suitable for special occasions and circumstances. In fact, a legacy letter can be written by anyone at, at any age and at any time, but often scripted at significant life events such as a birth of a child, or grandchild, graduation or retirement.
Get the tools, tips and support you need to discover and reclaim the legacies of your ancestors, clarify your values, give purpose to your life, and translate your stories and hard-earned life lessons into wisdom, blessings and gratitude to loved ones. Through writing exercises, memory prompts, and group discussion, this class provides an important opportunity for reflection, illumination and healing and transports you from your past to your future. Creating your Legacy Letter is a great opportunity for self-examination resulting in psychological and spiritual growth and improved physical health. Come join nationally recognized trainer, gerontologist, professional writer and Founder of Legacy Letters, Leah Dobkin in this life-affirming, profoundly spiritual, fun and satisfying experience.
The class is designed for people of all ages, and no writing experience is necessary!
