Creativity and Core Beliefs

Core Belief:

Creative Expression Heals

Creative expression heals. This is one of my core beliefs.

When I’m hurt or angry, I write like the furies to understand and work through the emotions. Writing is my go-to, but sometimes I go to the garden to weed and plant seeds or to my gemstones and findings to sort and create.

Healing through creative expression is not unique to those who identify as writers and artists. How many have been told to “Write it out,” or “Draft a letter to so-and-so, tell them what you’re feeling, tell them everything, then burn the letter”?

Creative expression heals, but that’s not the whole story. Maybe I’m not angry or hurt. Maybe I feel fine, yet I need to write to "truly” feel fine because the words that come tell me who I am and expand who I am becoming. Creative expression explores and expands.

Our creative retreats are designed to help guests connect with their own creative expression and open them up for healing, discovery, and expansion. Our goal is to create a community around creative expression. Our intention is to heal the world through creative expression.
