Dancing With Death - Expressive Arts Therapy Workshop
Oct. 30 • 10 - 3 || $75
Death impacts us all in uniquely profound ways. Together, let's get curious about how creativity can nurture the precious days we are given. Engage in nourishing creative renewal while you explore your natural responses to the inevitable.
Experience meditative and somatic approaches to intuitive movement, writing, doodling, storytelling, poetry, optional sharing and more. Take time to gently contemplate the initiatory grief of relational endings, lost loved ones/pets, and environmental losses along with feelings about your own death. It's big stuff!
Expressive arts awareness practices can help you to navigate big feelings, support healthy brain chemistry and regulate your nervous system.
• Expand your range of play in a trauma-informed space.
• Rewild your creativity and make exploratory art that doesn't have to be pretty!
• Rest, move, engage and create as you feel naturally inclined (no exercises are mandatory).
• This is time for you to show up for you.
• No experience or skill is necessary.
*This is not 'group therapy' though it will be therapeutic in nature. There will be times for some sharing in the group. Should you need more care in response to what arises, please reach out to me or another trusted support person for 1:1 care.
What to Bring:
• your favourite drawing materials (pastels, markers, pencil crayons will be provided)
