Accessing the creative process as meditation is as natural as breathing because it’s all about bringing us back to the present moment. This class supports participants in focusing their attention and energy in order to concentrate and innovate. We’re using art making techniques to honor and fully experience our mind in flow through stream of consciousness expression by combining purpose and play. We’ll work together to harness the power of the here and now as our resource to discover and make possible what we imagine. Within our creative sanctuary, we’re exercising our mindfulness so think of this as our personal restorative practice.
Some Examples of Ways This Class Supports Participants:
