We'd all like "joy-filled" and "peaceful" to describe us during the holiday season but often "stressed" and "frazzled" are more accurate descriptors of busy women.  During this guided Touchstones of Self-Care Workshop, we will consider how to care for ourselves in a realistic manner in order to reduce our stress and increase our joy.  

If you've taken the Self-Care Workshop before, this will be a great refresher to see how you're doing, but this Workshop will specifically address holiday season stressors, including family expectations, unhealthy eating, and exceptionally busy schedules.

Participants will be invited to create a custom "touchstone" ornament as a reminder to take time for self-nurture.  You do not need ANY artistic ability or previous experience, just a willingness to take a short intermission for yourself.

All supplies will be provided. However, participants may bring favorite pens and/or markers from home if they'd like.

Here are a few important things to note about this workshop:

-Free parking is available in the lot to the west of the building. Please be mindful to park only in spots designated for Tippecanoe Arts Federation.

-All materials will be provided. However if you would like, you are welcome to bring your own markers or pens for use during our creative time.

-Masks are recommended for those who are unvaccinated, and social distancing will be practiced.

Creative Intermission Workshops are designed as an intentional "pause" for participants who typically spend much time and energy caring for others--sometimes forgetting the element of self-nurture. These workshops will be a safe place to relax, reflect, and breathe--the emphasis is on having fun and feeding the spirit rather than making a polished finished product.
