Rather than focusing on “fixing” anything, this space is about listening inward, building trust with yourself, and reconnecting with your innate wisdom.Together, we will explore:How boundaries show up in the body (and how to recognize those signals)The difference between cognitive understanding and embodied knowingCreative expression as a pathway to insight, clarity, and self-connectionGentle practices to strengthen your ability to feel, trust, and act from your inner guidanceThis is a trauma-informed and supportive environment, where you are always invited to move at your own pace. No prior art experience is needed—only a willingness to explore.✨ What to Expect:Guided somatic awareness exercisesExperiential art-making (accessible to all levels)Reflection and integration practicesA welcoming, non-judgmental space for personal exploration✨ What You’ll Gain:A deeper, felt sense of your personal boundariesTools to support self-awareness and emotional regulationIncreased connection to your inner wisdom and intuitive guidanceA meaningful creative experience that can continue beyond the workshopAll materials will be provided.Whether you are new to this work or already on a path of self-discovery, this workshop offers a grounded and enriching opportunity to come back into relationship with yourself in a more embodied, authentic way.About the Facilitator: Charmaine Husum, RCAT-S, MTC, RCS, CT, DKATI, is an artist, Registered Canadian Art Therapist, somatic counsellor, kundalini yoga instructor, author, and international presenter.
