WORKSHOPS


Embodied Resourcing Thru Image Making

Waking up to the depth, wisdom, and intelligence of our body and imagination can open us to inner resources and life-given wholeness.

In this in-person experiential workshop, through conscious body movement, image-making, and creative writing, participants will call on a new kind of inward attention to explore feeling states, kinesthetic sensations, intuition, and body awareness, toward meaningful new encounters with the self.

The workshop is open to registered participants. No prior art or movement/dance experience is needed. Art materials will be provided. Participants will need comfortable clothing for movement/dance and pen/journal for reflective writing.
