It’s time for a little inspiration, but first, let’s get personal.

How would you answer the following questions?

• What do you enjoy?

• How can you celebrate/share what is in your hands?

Grandiose questions, right? Even still, take just a moment to jot down the first ideas that come to mind. Updates and adjustments can come later.

This first little pause in your day is a first step, and there will be many more along the way.

Reframe. Renew. is a creativity workshop that will take you on a journey of discovery. You will realize that inspiration is all around you. My guess is you are already further along on this path than you ever knew.

Throughout this workshop, I hope to inspire and encourage, and I hope to give you some tools to face your days with a fresh perspective. I will guide you through various exercises that ask you to observe, play, stretch, and contemplate.

You need not consider yourself an artist. 

Throughout the workshop, you will have the chance to explore various aspects of both art and writing. Some exercises will build into next things, while others will simply serve as a bit of a reset or aligning. If seeing either the word “art” or “writing” causes some anxiety, this class is definitely for you! We are going to gently work our way into each assignment and pull things apart to better serve you.

Guest Melissa Tibay will offer several movement classes to further aid in this reset and alignment. She will encourage movement that energizes, releases, builds, and relaxes.

This journey of creativity is a lot less about having a picture to hang on a wall (though you might!) and more about living with greater awareness and appreciation.

Ready to get started?!

Below, you will find links to all of the instruction you will need.

The material is organized into three sections:

• Section one —The why and how.

• Section Two —Let’s do these things!

• Section Three —The wrap up.

This workshop may be completed at your own pace. It is my hope that you will ease into these activities with curiosity and enjoy the journey of each project. We are not running on a hard and fast deadline. Slow down as necessary, and resist the temptation to jump into the next thing, even within each activity. Remember to engage with where you are at. We already do enough flitting about as we mindlessly scroll through social media and the like.

For those segments (in the “Activities” section) that should be completed in a particular order, titles and descriptions will be provided to guide you along. In general, follow along in the “Activities” order provided.

Since this is a creativity workshop, my art will be held back so as to leave room for your particular vision. For a little boost and inspiration, feel free to peruse my Blog and Shop.

Let’s go!
