BACKGROUND
For years I’ve heard that I should love myself. I heard that I couldn’t love others until I did. I heard that all my problems stemmed from a lack of self-love. But the concept felt foreign and intangible, and the love connection failed. And guess what else? I felt worse for not being able to connect. “I don’t love myself? I must be even less worthy of love than I already thought!”
I’m laughing with empathy now as I’m typing this.
Self-love is a precious and all-inclusive experience.
At the heart of this love is the acceptance of all of our states, thoughts, dreams, fears, worries, cravings, loves . . .
and one of the most immediate doorways to this acceptance is creativity.
In this special workshop, we will use a variety of *simple* (no prior experience or skill necessary!) creative exercises to connect with ourselves, exactly as we are, and tap into the natural love of this moment. It is effortless, fun, and unifying, as we recognize our humanity in others as well as in ourselves.
