When our life spins out of control, we turn on genes that cause chronic inflammation (stress), the root cause of the largest global health epidemics of our time: obesity, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, depression, anxiety and other lifestyle-related chronic disease. Research has found that cortisol levels are lowered by just engaging in 45 minutes of an expressive art practice.

By gathering with others in a supportive, validating environment, we are reminded that we are not alone, and that everyone goes through periods of their life when they feel lost, uncertain and are having trouble finding their way back home. This realization can make all the difference in how you experience the journey.

This intentional time can provide an individual with a different perspective, and reminds us that, “When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change,” Wayne Dyer.

Navigating our 24/7 modern lives and living in a culture that rarely “unplugs”, means we need to find ways to recalibrate our bodies, minds and spirits and return to our natural rhythms. Workshops offer the chance to experience a digital detox and deep “to-the-bones” replenishment, rest and renewal. This is key to sustainable living.

Gain clarity/focus around how and where to direct your energy, time and talent in the coming months or year. I believe we all inherently know what is best for ourselves. We rarely slow down or get quiet enough to hear this inner wisdom. Often this comes right to the surface when we’re on retreat or attending healing workshops.

This provides the opportunity for members to share experiences, provide supportive connections, and allows each group to experience and create a unique dynamic energy while providing an intentional setting for reflection and meaningful dialogue.

This gives you permission to drop your persona, to come as you are, and to receive help from like-minded people who see the highest and best in you. It is freeing, exhilarating and it reminds us of who we really are. We’re all one another’s teachers; often the biggest “pearls” from a workshop experience come from other workshop participants who are sitting just a few feet away.

What it is: Expressive Art is a creative process that encourages creating from one’s authentic self. It honors the creative process over the end result. It explores one’s unique creativity for self-discovery, healing, and personal transformation. The expressive art process invites you to explore HEALING CREATIVITY to restore and rejuvenate your soul to rediscover your creative intuitive intelligence. Creative Soul Care™ Workshops facilitate Expressive art, writing, movement and rhythm as tools to explore our unique creativity. The workshops are designed to encourage the practice of being present in the moment and being heart-centered with creativity without fear or self-judgment, allowing an individual’s full potential and unique creative voice to be expressed, written, drawn, felt and heard. The creative Expressive Arts process strengthens our relationship with our inner wisdom, inner healer, and inner teacher, allowing transformative self-acceptance to live life closer to one’s AUTHENTIC SELF and to love yourself and others with more compassion. Creative Soul Care™ Workshops nurture the creative and courageous spirit of women who want to experience flow -- a healing state in which participants are fully immersed, energized, and engaged in their intuitive, creative and spiritual self. ​ What it’s not: Expressive Art is not therapy. All information is for educational purposes only and not specifically intended to diagnose, prescribe, treat, cure medical conditions or replace medical advice.

Most of the women who attend Creative Soul Care™ Workshops are CURIOUS. They are curious about themselves and their life situations and goals. Some want to reconnect with themselves in a creative environment that encourages the freedom of an authentic and non-judgmental creative process. Others are interested in having CREATIVITY back in their life for self-healing, self-discovery, personal growth and joyful play. ​ Many are in LIFE TRANSITIONS such as career changes, pregnancy, becoming a new parent, retirement, divorce, medical recovery, empty nest, care of elderly parents, family relationships, adult child moving back home, or managing the demands of being a wife and mom, and most have neglected SOULFUL CARE time. ​ Creative Soul Care Workshops provide women the opportunity to check into their AUTHENTIC SELF without fear or judgement and to discover their truest desires and needs. These women want to NOURISH THEIR SOUL.

Yes! These are typically 6 hours and include lunch. Clients prefer VIP sessions when they have a specific goal or situation in mind and desire more 1:1 coaching time to create, and dive deep for transformative healing.

Each session is customized to the client, but typically there is time to discuss what is top of mind that feels most important to explore with creative tools. There is time to create and language what is being presented in images and words, and most importantly have an opportunity to share, and journal for the transformative insight. The creative tools I offer during a session will depend on the client and the journey that unfolds. It’s quite powerful to experience this active relational relationship.

There is not an “average” number sessions, but I have found that three 2 hour sessions can be quite transformative for a new client.

My clients have sought my services when they are in life transitions, some examples are stress due to new job/career or resolving relationship conflicts at home and work. Many desire to reconnect to their soul to feel joy and discover how to have creativity back in their life, or some want to overcome feelings of perfectionism, self sabotage, and overwhelm that are blocking them from achieving personal goals.
