HeARTwork: creative expression Workshop®
The body heals with play, the mind heals with laughter, and the spirit heals with joy.
My hope is that all beings are given space to tap into their inner reservoir of creativity to water the streams of resilience, wisdom and love that flows within us all.
Art has always been a tool to clear the clutter of my mind, lighten the heaviness that life can sometimes bring and connect deeper with my Soul. Though formally trained in art, I never cared for the constricting box I felt trapped in while at university. I yearned to self-express without judgement, expectations of how it “should” look or feel the pressures to compete. While studying at the University of Washington, I always knew I was meant to serve yet didn’t quite know how it would look. It wasn’t until many years later that it became clear.
HeARTwork™ initially started out as a personal daily practice for me to release stress during the beginning of 2020. I realized how serious I had become and remembered through the art of PLAY, JOYOUSNESS and CREATIVITY that I can empower myself; connect to my truth, nurturing / nourishing the inner child to express as they desire. I was letting go of old paradigms that dictate how I “should” be and allowing all aspects of myself to be loved. I soon felt called to share this with others in community so we could uplift and inspire each other in a supportive container. I wove from 16 years as a healing arts practitioner and work in the non-profit sector as an art workshop facilitator supporting marginalized communities to create the unique tapestry of HeARTwork™.
HeARTwork™ is a community driven self expression workshop designed with the intention to offer a safe space for free expression and play, exploring our inner landscape through intuitive art, breathwork, movement, and sound. Through a heart centered approach, I will guide on how to shift from dwelling in the busy mind to the intuitive wisdom and creativity within you to access deeper awareness, clarity, and calm. Reconnect with and remember your MAGIC and POWER. Reclaim your Divine birthright to FREEDOM and EASE. Above all, we will have FUN! A delightful embodied experience to relax, unwind, rejuvenate and invigorate the soul! Supplies provided. Come as the sovereign BEing you are.
