A community where we can show up in and with the richness of our experiences.This group is for folks who are interested in stepping into more creativity and curiosity around understanding, managing and supporting themselves in their experiences of Neurodivergence. Sharing and gathering resources, building creative care practices that reduce and soothe overwhelm... and support day-to-day balance and grounding… that allow us to step into agency and choice… to create more ease in our lives, individually AND collectively.ART IN THIS GROUP:We will have dedicated art-making time as part of each session together.The focus of our art-making will always be rooted in building supportive/creative practices that can be repeated ....so, process over product.Some materials/processes that we'll be working with: watercolour paint, fabric/slow-stitch, wrapping (yarn/string), clay (air-dry), collage/mixed media, bilateral drawing.__________________________WEEK 1:Chat about Neurodiversity/Neurodivergence, Creative Care Practices, group guidelines, introductions, art-making, discussion.WEEKS 2-5:Sharing our stories ...space to focus on 2 folks each session (approx 15min/each), in a way that best serves YOU. You get to decide what you'd like that to be ...maybe it's sharing personal experience, challenges, questions, ideas, requests for feedback/advice... maybe it's sending questions or a topic to the group in advance (or in the moment), that we can jump into collectively. You get to choose. And, if this is something that brings up any uneasiness/paralysis with you I'd be happy to schedule a quick zoom chat to discuss some options/supports in advance!Art-making, discussion.WEEKS 6-9:More stories, sharing, discussion, art-making... I'll have some themes/topics to bring to the group, but we'll always prioritize going where our conversations take us.________________________________________________________________A FEW NOTES:This is an in-person series (address details above).The group will be small (5 people max).Registration is open to adults only (35+ for this particular series).All art materials are provided.Tea is provided!Please arrive on time!
