Sacred Self-Care
Saturday, 11:30am-5:30pm / Sunday 9:30am-12:30pm
An invitation to turn your attention inwards and care for the spirit that gives, bringing awareness to your exchange with nature, and the support your body needs.

In our circle, intention (sankalpa) will be cultivated and strengthened through nature-based expressive arts therapy directives and indigenous art forms.

Themes of impermanence, grounding, receptivity, humility and creativity sourced from the soul may emerge in our sharing.

Weather permitting, there will be time in nature, as well as guided art journeys including a variety of natural media.
