Unscripted Awakening: The Art of Embracing New Experiences with Joy
Could you use a little more joy in the midst of this cold winter and challenging time in our country? Join Certified Humor Professional, Mary Jo Neil, for this delightful and encouraging pop-up program! We are creatures of habits - having many routines in our lives which help provide stability and efficiency. While these routines serve us well, they can also inhibit us from exploring new opportunities, growing and being curious. Step into a transformative evening of self-discovery where you notice and calm your fears, build confidence, and deepen your spiritual path using applied improvisation, humor and visual creation. Through playful exercises, lighthearted interactions and guided creative practices, you'll learn to be more curious and mindful. No artistic or improvisation experience is necessary - just bring an open mind and a desire to connect with your inner child. By the end of the session, you will leave with practical tools to embrace uncertainty, channel your creative energy into your spiritual practice and cultivate a joy-filled connection with yourself and others.
