E se il benessere non fosse qualcosa da cercare fuori… ma qualcosa da ricordare dentro di te? Con l’energia del Toro — simbolo di **stabilità, piacere e presenza** — ti invitiamo a vivere un’esperienza unica di **arteterapia & mindfulness creativa** 🌿🎨 Uno spazio per **rallentare, respirare e tornare a te**, trasformando ciò che senti in chiarezza, espressione e benessere. **Tratteremo i temi della salute, del corpo, del rapporto con i cinque sensi e le varie forme di nutrimento (compreso il denaro).** [Scopri il workshop completo qui, sconto per la community TuSai e 2x1 se vieni con un amic*](https://www.tusaiforpeople.com/astroworkshop-creativo/) Uno spazio di condivisione che ci parla della nostra stabilità e la capacità di stare in contatto con il corpo ed i nostri sensi. Come in ogni incontro, andremo oltre la superficie del mito, per trovare nuovi modi per esprimere se stessi, liberandosi da schemi e condizionamenti limitanti, sopratutto quando si tratta di nutrimento, soldi e salute. TuSai sposa a pieno i valori taurini e, credendo del potenziale presente in ognuno di noi, ti inviteremo a coltivare il benessere nelle piccole cose, in un’esperienza olistica che tocca tutti e 5 i sensi: olfatto, gusto, tatto, udito e vista. **E’ questa la chiamata all’essenza di ciò che *tu sai* e *sei*.** ### 💡 **Cosa esploreremo insieme?** Come in ogni incontro, accoglieremo le proposte dell'archetipo del mese attraverso: * **Meditazione archetipica**: un viaggio interiore guidato per incontrare il tuo “star bene come un Toro” e riconnetterti alla tua visione personale. * **Esercizi creativi e simbolici**: attraverso il disegno intuitivo e tecniche di autoespressione, esploreremo ciò che hai bisogno per stare bene nel tuo corpo e radicarti in ció che sai e sei. * **Lavoro esperienziale di gruppo**: ispirati dall’energia del Toro, creeremo uno spazio di condivisione e riflessione sul concetto di **benessere, salute e radicamento**. * **Costellazioni sistemiche**: esploreremo i legami che ti trattengono dal vivere la tua autenticità e come trasformarli in risorse per il cambiamento. ✨ **Abbraccia la stabilità, il piacere di vivere ed il benessere integrale condiviso. Porta il tuo contributo al mondo. Il futuro inizia da qui!** ✨ Il segno del Toro, secondo dello zodiaco e primo segno di Terra, rappresenta la stabilità, la concretezza e il piacere dei sensi. Governato da Venere, pianeta dell’amore, della bellezza e del gusto di vivere bene, il Toro è profondamente connesso con il corpo, la natura e la ricerca di armonia nei ritmi quotidiani. Ci insegna che **benessere non è un obiettivo ma un’esperienza quotidiana**. **Domenica 17 Maggio ore 18:00-21:00**
