About the workshop:

A 2-part somatic workshop for creatives exploring a new relationship to time, utilizing movement, visual art, writing, and dialogue.

We all live within a structure of time, both natural and human made. The sun and moon. Fall and spring. The tides and oceans. The clock, the calendar, a mix of human construction and based off nature and stars.

This workshop is not about providing answer, but about creating space for exploration on what creative relationships Time desires to be with you OR perhaps how your Creativity wants to be in relationship with Time-- and with you.

As creatives, as humans, there is often a tension around our productivity::: When should we be working? How often? How long? How many pieces should I be making? When do I know when a piece is finished? Am I too old to start over as a creative? Am I too young to be taken seriously? I don't have enough time to pursue my creative imagings because X, Y, Z.

And so on, and so forth. I am sure we could all enter in our own questions, anxieties, and fears around this.

But what if we slowed down enough to explore our relationship to bodily time?
What might the body have to say about speed, energy, rest, and time?

This 2 part workshop will be a space to explore these questions. It will not be the end-all, be-all of these questions (nor should there ever be), but an open door to allow your own creative intuition to spring forth, and perhaps allow a new way of creating to make itself known to you.

This workshop will utilize some of the following:

• personal mythology exploration

• journaling + writing exercises

• visual art making

• guided movement and somatic explorations

• creative prompts

• readings

• group conversation

• and more!
