Rituals and Rites of Passage. Healing through Art and Nature.
Essential in a child's development, but transformative for an adult's soul! Play develops confidence, builds emotional and social skills, promotes optimism, benefits our mental health, helps our brain relax in order to solve problems and strengthens our relationships. Nothing lights up the brain like play! Come splash in the creek, make mud pies, run free in a meadow! We will find a way to engage an inner joy that many of us find waning in our lives.
Create. Release. Find joy! The connection to art and nature goes back to human beginnings, but in our busy, over-scheduled lives, we struggle with finding our muse. Let me help you spark your imagination and curiosity. Let us look to nature and be inspired to wonder. Media is only limited by your interest: mixing paint, journaling, stitching, clay. Art for fun - art for you...nourish your soul while exploring thoughts and emotions.
Groups can explore a variety of experiences, from basket weaving, creating murals and dyeing yarn or cloth to story bowls and more. Planned with school groups in mind, the programs can be modified for museums, churches, senior centers or Veteran groups, and usually consist of a single visit or a session of classes over a short period of time with participants working toward a specific purpose.
Raising teens can be extremely challenging! I have two lovelies - one in high school and one new-to-college, so believe me, I know! This individually catered program focuses on working with teens and parents to accept their changing world. Find purpose, confirm social ties and roles, and find a sense of place through observation and reflection.
We are all broken in some form or fashion, and we need each other and the natural world to find our wholeness together. Come take a meditative walk in the forest with me, listen to the wind, sling paint until you find consolation, explore yoga while seated firmly on the healing ground. Heal your heart by creating your art and respond to the sacred calls of your soul!
Everyone has unique needs...how can we serve you? Have an idea of what would make your heart sing? I would love to hear about it and see how we can make it happen together! Reach out, I’d love to work with you!
