A SPIRITUALITY OF PLAY

In A SPIRITUALITY OF PLAY workshop, participants are invited to experience playful creativity in a safe, nurturing environment and explore several art techniques that will encourage them to discover the “child-within” in a gentle and delightful way that deepens their sense of spirituality.

CREATIVE SPIRITUALITY WRITING

In a CREATIVE SPIRITUALITY WRITING workshop, a quiet and sacred experience of artistic reflection, renewal and creativity encourages a discovery of how ‘sight’ becomes ‘insight’ and the invisible presence of the holy in the visible world and within.

MANDALA 101

Mandalas have been used around the world as a form of mindfulness and creativity for centuries.  The Mandala (a Sanskrit word for sacred circle) is both a process and a tool that can bring us to a place of inspired creativity and deepened spirituality. The primary intention of the Mandala is to fully open ourselves to “being present” in the artistic process rather than creating a finished product. The MANDALA101 workshop provides simple techniques to experience creative self-expression and feelings of stillness, peace and spiritual renewal.
