The Creative Revolutions workshop is for you if your self-care hasn't been optimal lately. Learn how to kick-start a creative phase as part of your daily routine and treat yourself to intentional connection, reflection, and self-discovery. All creative abilities are welcome. You can expect to leave the workshop with a new self-care tool, a personal and meaningful art piece you have made, the gift you have given yourself of time and self-attention.
