Offer your team a time for review, reflection & creative expression amid a challenging season
Offer your team a fresh start and cutting edge! This hands-on workshop helps participants identify past successes often overlooked by typical review processes in order to regroup and look ahead. While engaging with the visual arts and mindfulness practices, participants reflect on significant life experiences—both small and great—as a means to boost morale and self-awareness. Use this as a unique year-end review process, closure for a particular season, or a refreshing team-building event. The look forward to meaningful connection and reflection through drawing—no special art skills required!
Length: 1.5 hours; real-time workshop, in-person or online
(While not therapy, this workshop is trauma-informed and can purposefully intersect with Covid and quarantine experiences.)
What people are saying…
"I found the workshop especially helpful for me in ways I was not expecting. The experienced facilitator created a calm and safe space and her assistance in guiding us through holistic reflections of the past year helped bring to my mind and emotions images and feelings that assisted me in processing "where I've been" and "where I am now." Reflecting with another participant and as a group allowed me to see and feel the common experiences shared by many and affirmed and encouraged me in that I am not alone. Highly recommended!"

"This workshop gave me new eyes to see a greater depth to all that I've been experiencing this year. I realized I had only really been processing the events of 2020 on a surface level and this exercise allowed me to see the year as if I had 3D glasses on -- the bigger, deeper picture of the story that unfolded and my place in it. I came out of this time more aware of myself and my needs but also more aware of the experiences and struggles of others."

“I loved that the sketches exercise allowed me to count the costs of the year and made space for them while also encouraging a balanced perspective and reminding me of the goodness also experienced, which I tend to overlook or discount.”
“The best thing about this exercise was I didn't really think about it while I was doing it. The drawing process seemed to bypass my head and get straight to the heart of my experiences this past year...[It] helped me observe my own reactions to the extremely unusual circumstances of this past year, clarify the emotional journey I have been on, and identify some significant and surprising shifts, both beneficial and unfavorable. "A Year in Sketches" led to some personal revelations that likely would not have manifested through a simple Q & A or discussion process. Thank you for this unique and profound experience!”
