Grief is a universal experience but society has given us no tools to handle it. Instead, grief is avoided, denied, and held at a distance. You’re expected to move on, get over it fast, and smile!
The problem is that pushing your grief away doesn’t alleviate it or make it easier to live with. It’s still there…lurking. And the harder you try to ignore it, the harder it gets to ignore.
Unexpressed grief has a way of keeping us from moving forward in life. Which is why the creative act is so enticing and rewarding.
Doing something with your grief is an act of defiance.
Creativity is a powerful way to explore and ultimately get comfy with your grief so that you can feel lighter, freer, and able to be in your life.
Join transformational creativity and grief coach Susie Stonefield for an introduction to heart-centered no-rules creativity and an exploration of your grief story. Art supplies provided.
This is not about making art. It’s about using art to feel your heart.
