Art for Self Healing Group
Type: Virtual Support Group
Age Group: 18+
Cost: Self-Pay Fee (Call Office)
When: Every Friday at 12pm
Art helps us connect our inner world of thoughts, feelings, and perceptions to our outer world of experiences. Creative expression is about process, self-discovery, insight, and allowing space for our non-analytical brain to have a voice and to share its wisdom. This group is supportive for people who are looking for fresh creative ways to explore and heal overwhelming emotions of stress, worry, fear, frustration, conflict, negativity, or heartbreak. Participants will be encouraged to gently access their inner wisdom through guided meditation and spontaneous creative expression and to share their work with the group in a supportive, compassionate, and non-judgemental atmosphere. You do not need to have artistic skill or talent to benefit from this group, you just need to tap into your imagination which can be easy to do when you are feeling focused and relaxed.
