Bought new journals!  And…bonus…an address book that is like a jewel!

Love visiting the local shops to find things and explore.

Where are your artist dates taking you?

Here are the beauties I found!

Paint splatters…a la Jackson Pollock. Click the image to create one yourself!

 

A wonderful evening of vision board creating! The night outside was chilly, but the energy generated inside led to focused visions of renewal.

We began the evening with a visualization to set intention. This visualization came from Shatki Gwain:

A centering story brought the idea of “renewal” and light into the circle. The story was entitled, 3 Golden Hairs from the book Women Who Run with the Wolves, by Clarissa Pinkola Estes:

Here is a story read by Dr. E…different from the one I read, but captivating to hear her voice:

We then took time to question, reflect and discuss with the topic being focused on “renewal”. Here were the questions:

• With a change in the light due to the winter solstice, how do you wish to “renew” yourself as we move into the light of the new year
• How will you restore your existence, vigor, and freshness in the coming days?

Everyone shared…everyone had a beautiful story…the evening was enlightening.

Thank you all for being there and taking care of you.
