SoulScape: A Mindful Art-Making Mini Retreat

Friday, May 9 from 9:00 am to 2:30 pm at Starcell Studio in Bloomington, MN

Sliding scale: $70 - $180 

We’ll approach drawing, painting, and mark-making with a beginner’s mind, regardless of how long you’ve been making art. Give your inner critic some time off and apply mindfulness principles to the creative process. Get grounded in your body, tune into your senses, connect with your breath, and approach mark-making unhurriedly, free from attachments to outcome. Explore what it’s like to find joy in creating, free from judgment, or any pressure to be perfect. 

We’ll take our time, going slowly and intentionally to savor the pleasure and wonder of creating original pieces. We’ll draw in the studio and outdoors. We’ll respond to natural elements, poetry, and our own breath as prompts. We’ll practice self-care by nourishing the creative spirit, and community care by encouraging one another to take creative risks. Taking time to build your capacity to be creative, take risks, and appreciate beauty is not frivolous; these are vital skills to hone as we navigate an increasingly uncertain future.

Nature Immersion for Grief

Friday, May 16, 9 am - 11 am at MEND Grief Sanctuary in Inver Grove Heights, MN.

Please join us for a safely-distanced outdoor nature immersion experience to help ease the pain of grief and loss. This 2-hour session is designed to help you tune into your senses. Enjoy both guided and silent portions to help you connect with nature as part of your healing from grief, trauma, or loss.

Important things to note:

  • Some of the paths that we may walk are narrow and could involve moderate hills. 

  • Because we will be outside and safely distanced, this activity may not be suitable for participants who are hard of hearing.
