Embrace your Inner Critic and give your Inner Creative Muse permission to PLAY! We can often be our own worst critic and struggling to make our art practice a priority can be exhausting. De-stress and Express with some guided, unique, and simple Mindful Art Experiments you can do in your own time to create with ease. PRESENTER: Cynthia Hauk, MFA, RYT is an artist, creativity coach, and facilitator. She is passionate about helping busy people, artists, and creative entrepreneurs embrace their Inner Critic, de-stress, and express themselves through simple, fun, and inspiring Mindful Art activities. She believes…
Her current teachings are infused with creative expressive art explorations, calming guided visualizations and breathing techniques, poetic language, and mindfulness exercises to help others explore their own experience. She offers a trauma-sensitive approach that can help calm the central nervous system, enhance self-awareness and self-regulation, and empower students to reclaim their voice creatively. |
