Creative Journaling
In Creative Journaling, participants use words, visualizations, and a variety of mixed media techniques to unearth, explore and document their thoughts and emotions.
In addition to profound growth gained from processing and understanding their experiences, this program unites participants in hope, support and camaraderie as they journey toward wellness.
Digital Storytelling
In this workshop, members will be guided as they create their very own short film (Digital Story) about a meaningful moment or experience in their lives.
Drumming
As people move toward an enlightened view of health and personal well-being, ancient rituals such as drumming have resurfaced and found their place in modern times. Drum circles have become especially prolific in health and business environments, commonly prescribed for physical and emotional healing and as an
antidote for stress.
