Have you ever wanted to learn more about how to practice mindfulness while simultaneously being able to express yourself in a creative manner? Well then, here’s the group for you!
Conveniently, artwork is already a mindful technique at its core. This group will help teens regulate and become focused on the moment. Weekly mindfulness practices, all while having a positive experience expressing their self through creative lenses! With utilizing creative arts, one can bring about self-understanding, decrease strong emotions such as anxiety or depression and give way to better emotional regulation.
In this 6 week course we aim to build emotional awareness and regulation through utilization of mindfulness techniques, combined with in session and out of session creative arts exercises. The goal of this group is to learn about mindfulness in a practical setting as well as foster emotional insight and social connectedness with others.
Furthermore, Nourish will provide the materials necessary to create each art project (and no artistic talent or experience is required!). All we need is your participation, a willingness to learn and a sense of openness with self and others.
We look forward to having you come create with us!
