How do you recognize anxiety? Is it a tightness in your chest, a knot in your stomach, or a constant hum of worry? Through the use of mindfulness and intuitive collage, we’ll explore our relationship with anxiety without judgment — giving it a shape, a color, and a form. 

Within a safe, compassionate space, we’ll learn a creative, hands-on resilience strategy to process challenging feelings and discover new perspectives — coming away with a deeper understanding of our anxiety, a personal tool for calm we can return to anytime, and the learned knowledge that when words fall silent, art can speak.
