This practice is different from “regular” journaling. The workshop will invite exploration and transformation of your inner experience on the page – as colors, words, shapes, or movement. Dana will provide flexible visual templates that allow participants to adjust and re-invent as needed. Bypassing the analytical mind, we will let signals from our bodily awareness to travel through the hand to the page. As this process occurs, felt meanings begin to emerge. We will pause to witness what we are holding, select affirming words, and hone the potential to take the process deeper. There will be ample space for solo practice, reflection, and sharing.
25 USD per session.

SOF expands our Focusing awareness allowing us to meet others while remaining intimate with ourselves and our present moment experience, facilitating
