WHAT’S INCLUDED:
Your $87 investment includes:
Experiential Personal Development Exploration
Facilitated by Jody Crawford, a seasoned certified teacher and life coach
Engage in an interactive personal growth experience designed to deepen self-awareness, inspire new perspectives, and support meaningful personal transformation.
Through guided exploration, you'll gain practical insights and tools to help you move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and purpose.
Alchemizing Hypnagogic Light Experience
Facilitated by Summer Day, Certified Teacher
This unique guided light exploration invites you into a relaxed, receptive state that encourages creativity, curiosity, and a "beginner's mind." By engaging with light in an intentional way, participants may access new insights, unlock creative potential, and experience expanded ways of perceiving themselves and the world around them.
Creative Project Time
Dedicated time will be provided for you to work on a creative project of your choice. Whether you're writing, drawing, crafting, or exploring a new idea, this space is designed to support inspiration, focus, and creative expression.
Refreshments
Light refreshments will be available throughout the event. Participants are also welcome to bring a snack or treat to share, fostering a spirit of community and connection.
A Creative Gathering:
When was the last Time You Gave Yourself Uninteruppted Creative Time?
Soulful Expressions is a nurturing afternoon designed for folks who long to reconnect with their creativity, make meaningful progress on a project, and experience the inspiration that emerges when we gather in community.
Bring a project you've been wanting to start, continue, or complete—whether it's painting, knitting, scrapbooking, writing, journaling, mixed media, vision boarding, quilting, crafting, or any creative endeavour that calls to you.
OR
Explore with a craft we provide (so far, we are offering >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> and water-colour bookmarks). This is not a class where you'll be taught a specific skill. Instead, it is a dedicated space for creation, connection, and gentle encouragement.
As part of our time together, we will experience a guided hypnagogic light session designed to help quiet mental chatter, encourage creative flow, and support access to deeper states of imagination and insight. This experience may help participants approach their projects with fresh perspectives while encouraging the brain's natural capacity for neuroplasticity and creative exploration.
Imagine spending an afternoon surrounded by supportive folks, immersed in creative energy, making progress on something that matters to you.
