Draw Your Emotions: Feel Better Quickly Using Non-Verbal Processing

Emotions run high with confronting climate change.  Farah presents a gentle, innovative way to feel less stressed by playing with creativity.  You’ll get measurable results!

Absolutely no artistic ability required!

So much of what makes us emotional can be hard to verbalize, so working with a visual format will bypass that issue.

Discover a method to quickly feel calmer. Even if you are feeling multiple, layered emotions or you can’t really put your finger on what exactly you feel, this technique is for you.

Come and spend an easy and fun hour doing a fusion of playing with colour, lines and shapes combined with gentle emotional processing to release stress.

Using intuition and drawing, you will tap into the power of metaphor and imagination – allowing the expression and resolution of things that might be hard to process verbally. You can keep what you work on to yourself – nothing is evaluated or discussed unless you choose to do so.

Those who attend this session will:

* Experience stress reduction using a gentle, playful, imaginative approach.

* Learn how to adapt this process so that you can use it for yourself, and with your clients.

* Formulate a plan to apply these tools in daily life on your own.

Be prepared for some fun as we doodle, reflect, and visualize.  You will be amazed at the amount of stress relief that will come from this process, and how gentle and fun it is.
