“Stillness is where creativity and solutions are found.” ~ Meister Eckhart
Join a 4-week series on creative inquiries to embody radical presence, develop self-compassion, and unearth your body’s resiliency.
Classes featuring the Tamalpa Life/Art methodology: somatic movement, drawing, creative writing, improvisation, and ritual. Aspects of the Polyvagal Theory will be used and applied to support self-regulation and provide the ground for the creative work.
