MORE ABOUT THE BEAUTIFUL BE-ING PROGRAM:
The BEAUTIFUL BEing Program is a process-focused writing + art experience, dedicated to personal expression and personal growth. The purpose of the program is to guide you along your life's journey in a way that deepens your understanding of who you are, why you're here, and what you're meant to do with your "one wild and precious life."
By registering and participating in the Beautiful BEing program you will receive the following:
- a soul nurturing experience
- the opportunity to be in creative flow both in writing and through painting
- the chance to unearth your own inner wisdom
- an increase in self-esteem and improved confidence
- the opportunity to get to know the true, beautiful BEing that is inside you
- the time and space to slow down
- an understanding of the natural rhythm of creative cycles (winter is perfect for introspection!)
- experience love and compassion, for yourself and others
- skills to help you move through the fear that often comes up around creativity
REGISTRATION OPTIONS:
There are multiple registration options that offer the flexibility you need to participate in one or all of the monthly sessions. You can sign up for one Saturday or even part of a Saturday, but you'll get the best value when you register for all five sessions!
This program works best when both the writing and painting are part of your experience, as both creative modalities tap into different parts of you. It also works best when participants commit to all five sessions, so that a sense of trust and belonging in community can develop.
2016 Session Dates (third Saturday of the month): January 16th, February 20th, March 19th, April 16th, and May 21st
