Drawing for Mindfulness
So excited to present this workshop!
This is NOT a "drawing class" in the traditional sense of the meaning. You will not create a work of art to hang on the wall. In fact, I will encourage you to throw your works out at the end of class.
BUT WHY? you might be wondering . . .
I would consider this more of a "Soul Dump", or "Emotional Release" workshop. We are using pencil and paper merely as a tool to release.
Are you angry? DRAW IT. Are you frustrated? DRAW IT. Are you happy? DRAW IT.
We are TRANSMUTING energy! We are taking our non-physical world, our non-physical "stuff", "Baggage" if you will, and bringing it into the physical world, so we can see the process of letting go.
THAT is what this class is. If you have negative, stuck emotions, they can hold you down, similarly, if you have heightened positive emotions, they can mislead. We want to stay always centered and focused. We will use drawing as a meditation to facilitate this process.
We will take our emotional world and transmute it into the physical to release and let go, and you will literally THROW IT AWAY!
It will be a magical experience.
