Meets Friday, 7-9 p.m. and Saturday, 9 a.m.-4 p.m.Experience a time of self-discovery and inner growth as we explore two themes: Creating Images of Peace During Times of Fear and Cultivating the Power of Acceptance. In a world that may seem chaotic and uncertain, you will find space for navigating life's complexities. Through visual journaling, we’ll explore the interplay of perception, significance and self-talk while also cultivating acceptance, which is a fundamental skill for embracing life with grace.
VISUAL JOURNALING: CREATING IMAGES OF PEACE DURING TIMES OF FEAR
Perception. Significance. Self-talk. In our increasingly drama-driven, chaotic world, it can be easy to forget that these three things ultimately determine how outer environmental events affect our inner environmental landscape. Visual journaling is the art of self-discovery. First, we draw to express our feelings, and then we write to interpret those feelings to initiate transformation and understanding. We will create four images that will serve as stepping stones toward renewable images of inner peace and hope. No art experience is necessary!
CULTIVATING THE POWER OF ACCEPTANCE
Acceptance is the willingness to let go of your emotional opposition to the reality of what already is. Acceptance is the foundation of growth and change – a skill that once cultivated can lead to greater inner peace. We will explore the “Four As” of acceptance: acknowledge, allow, accommodate and appreciate; tools for shifting your perspective; the difference between judgment and discernment; and hands-on practices for cultivating and choosing acceptance.
