In this workshop we will discuss our story based on what others wanted us to do as if we were in a box. We will explore and discover more of what you wish you could do by getting out of the box. Experience how it feels: to stay in the box, and then how to get out of the box. I’ll lead a guided meditation to help you discover your story. We’ll play with the impressions from the meditation and then put it on paper, what it feels like to write your new story as if this was the last year that you have to live. What will you let go of and what will you do more of?

Following the success of last year’s Peace Talk led by Dr. Tobey Crockett at the Joslyn Center fund raiser for the Creativity Club of Cambria, we recognized that there is a thirst for practical hands on ways to talk about peace in our county. Joining Dr. Crockett are experienced peace builders Karin (AKA Grandmother Bridgeweaver) Leonard and Jennifer Star.

An imaginative journey (aka guided meditation), expressive art, and group discussion that will explore how to move co-creatively into the New Way. We will attempt to attain the perspective of a blank canvas and newborn babe. Bring a paper map of the geographical area you live in that can be cut up and painted on, and wear comfortable casual clothing. All other art supplies provided.

You are all invited to attend a presentation on Heather Mendel’s new book that she hopes will be a lot of fun, entitled: Taking the Fruit—Again.
