In these times of compassion fatigue and collective grief, we are all are carrying immense emotional weight. This immersive, restorative workshop offers space to pause, reconnect, and renew. Through experiential learning in bilateral art therapy and embodied connection practices, participants will explore tools to regulate the nervous system and restore balance.
