Making Mindful Changes Workshop 

The struggle…

Every year you are determined to make some changes.

You set out strong but after a few months find yourself losing steam and floundering.   

Before you know it…you are back into the same routine.  

The hope…

You learn to set your intention and use it as your guiding light.

You have the courage to put things into action.

You know that you may get off track but that you have the tools to stay on course.   

 The how…

Throughout the workshop, we will be discussing the stages of change which allows you to be more aware of where you are in your journey and allow you to use the tools that we discuss to combat any struggles you face in a particular phase.  Engagement with yoga practices, allows space for us to reconnect back to our body and develop a practice that will help us stay empowered in moments of struggle.  Working through different visualizations, we will be putting brush to paper to create a visual representation of what came up for us.  This will serve as a visual reminder of what we inspire for ourselves. 

The specifics…

·       Journal prompt around contemplation to consider before workshop 

·       Building an intention through visualization and breath work which will lead you to create a piece of art using watercolors that represents a sense of yourself that came up during the visualization.

·       An asana (movement friendly to all) practice to get you into the action stage and help with the embodiment of being courageous as you continue your journey of change. 

·       Creation of a piece of art using watercolors with the prompt to embody the idea of excellence with the acknowledgment that sometimes doing your best is the key to maintaining change.

·       Exploring the struggles that you face with change through a visualization and then creating a piece of art using watercolors to help with addressing these struggles.  This part will help you to get back on track during relapse and stay true to your intention.
