In this program you will use personal awareness as a means of discovering and advancing your creativity. You will examine your commitment to the creative process, confront fears and develop strategies for dealing with creative blocks. In addressing the challenging work of creating, you will gain a new awareness of your self.

 

Listen to Mary Holdgrafter and Wendy Huntington talk about how they developed Healing Stitches in this article from the Shen Blog archive.

  • Discover your untapped creativity and passion
  • Deepen your creative work
  • Get yourself out of a rut
  • Deal with the fear of rejection, of your work or yourself as an artist
  • Communicate your message more effectively
  • Experience joy and playfulness in your work
  • Find a spiritual connection in your work

 

Format: Through experiential learning and presentations Healing Stitches provides rich opportunities for personal growth and exploration. In an atmosphere of safety we use design, collage, journaling, movement and guided imagery to release blocked creative energy.  This popular program has been running at The Haven for nine years.

 

Faculty: Mary Holdgrafer, Wendy Huntington

[What I liked most about this program was] the gentle and nurturing environment, and the close personal connection between all – participants and facilitators. The 'daily intention' piece. The insight that my creative work is a part of me and my life. The affirmation that nourishing my creativity serves me ... and more than me.

 
June 2007

I have taken Healing Stitches many times. Each time seems fresh and new. I soon realized that it was about creativity and experimenting, not doing things perfectly or "right." It provides both challenges and fun.
