Description

[I]f we explore new territory in terms of expressing ourselves, we can begin to think differently too
(Fritz, 2012, p. 34).

The purpose of this workshop is to offer a safe space in which you can consciously take time for yourself, connect to and express your feelings and needs, gain awareness of the multiple resources you have in yourself, turn what you may consider as “weakness” into strength and potential, and feel empowered.
