SUMMARY:WABI SABI
DESCRIPTION:Stay & Refresh With Our 2-Day Getaway Exploring Flawed Beauty \nWellness retreats are a healthful way to bring body and mind back into alignment\, and to recenter the seat of soul in the spirit of loving kindness. At Heartful Retreats\, the focus is on exploring our many selves through friendship\, writing and art making\, good food\, and mindful spirituality. Through a combination of poetry\, painting\, drawing\, and mixed media materials\, you will explore the ideals of “handmade’ and the imperfections that make objects singular and meaningful. By allowing the process to unfold and becoming enveloped in the moment\, mistakes and accidents will become your guide. Small class\, big impact – space is limited so book now. Specific info about this Retreat can be found at www.heartfulretreats.com/retreats or contact Yvette Neumann @360-510-9819.
