The world pressures us to hurry, to respond, to act, to go, and rush. We feel it throughout the holiday season and absorb it into our new year. Yet so many of us are craving calm, quiet, and slowness, as the winter season calls for. In this creative workshop, join us as we explore honouring our own pace with softness, and putting this into practice in our everyday lives. Absolutely no art experience is required to participate.
Essential Art Materials:
Learn about highlights from the exciting new book, “The Connection Cure: The Prescriptive Power of Movement, Nature, Art, Service, and Belonging.” In this book, author Julia Hotz explores how we need ‘social prescriptions’ just as much as traditional medicine to cure what ails us. Insights and key takeaways from the book will be shared, followed by group discussions so we can reflect on these insights in the context of our own lives.
Many of us feel overwhelmed by competing work and family demands. This session will help participants identify their key work/life stressors, clarify their values, and develop skills and strategies to effectively prioritize their time and energy.
