SUMMARY:Art Therapy
DESCRIPTION:A special session of the ongoing Art Therapy series in celebration of International Women’s Day! Co-facilitated by Amélie Blanchard\, a Registered Art Therapist and Pauline Goh\, Clinical Counsellor. This session is dedicated to honoring the sacred feminine within us all. While cultural associations often link the feminine (yin) and masculine (yang) to specific genders\, every person embodies both energies\, though they may not always be in balance. During this session\, participants will engage in creative expression through art\, music\, and movement. We will all collaborate to create an altar to honor the women (past and/or present) and/or feminine energies that have shaped our lives. \nWhat qualities define the sacred feminine for you? How are these qualities expressed\, or not\, in your life today?  \nDate: March 7\, 2025 \nTime: 10am – 12pm \nInterested? REGISTER: workshops@cvims.org
