Dear Creative Ones, This week we gathered together to share our dreams. It was inspiring, uplifting, and deeply nourishing. We thank Anne Hofland for collaborating to bring such a rich offering and for the group who gathered to engage with
the topic. Considering our daydreams, sleep dreams, dreams for the world, and all the inbetween through writing and art was a powerful exploration. Perhaps you will take a little time to consider your dreams - those you still carry, those you have released, even those that are just a faint whisper - and find a way to give them a life within you. Here is a photo from our gathering, to hold the space for us all
as we engage our imaginations in service of our dreams. See you in the circle soon. Warm regards, Tamara & Kathleen

REGISTRATION IS OPEN for EAFI 110: Dive In to Expressive Arts Intermodal Intensive - Live Online March 28-31 Your next opportunity to begin our Certificate Training Program If you are considering training and want to experience one of
our courses, we are welcoming a few non-student participants. This core course, which we have come to call Dive-In to Expressive Arts – is just that – a deep dive into intermodal expressive arts and a gift to yourself. The
essence of expressive arts is the way it weaves different modalities together – visual art-making, rhythm, movement, poetry, sound, drama, journaling, and more. It is, essentially, a process of remembering something that was likely once natural. By becoming fluent in intermodal process we deepen our own holistic practice and become attuned to how to work with others. with Diane Lampitt, M.Ed., SoulCollage® Facilitator Thursday, February 23, 2023 6-9 pm est Online via Zoom Self-care is an essential task of well-being and health.

During this workshop we will draw upon the practice of SoulCollage® as an engaging tool for self-care.
