Please join us for an interactive, experiential workshop where we will create mandalas to explore the power of being present with our intense emotions.
In this three hour workshop we will:
Create a strong, safe container to hold you and your emotions.
Use the process of creating the mandala to explore the emotions.
Dialog/engage with the mandala to receive the wisdom that is there.
In this process art experience, we will use grounding activities, guided visualization, ceremony and group discussion to explore the wisdom our emotions have for us.
In this time of intense emotion, we would like to offer a safe space to explore the potential gifts in strong emotions, and plant the seeds of our intentions for the spring coming and beyond.

My art is always there for me, a constant support, inviting me to reconnect with my best self and begin again” Sharing mandalas with other people has become a large part of her process.
