*Please send me a message or call to book your place in the session, and let me know if you need to arrange a different time. Thank you!* About I absolutely love creating intuitive collages with people! It is an accessible and beautiful art form that is easy, efficient, fun and expressive. To create an intuitive collage, we simply cut out, glue and assemble various images to create a brand new picture. It does not need to make rational sense - it's all about letting go and allowing our intuition to guide us. Collage therapy involves the free-associative choosing of imagery and words, and recycling. Because collage is a projective technique, creating without preconceived intentions allows us to tap into our unconscious thoughts and emotions. The practical benefits of collage are: * Collages are easy to create, and no artistic skills are required. The emotional benefits of collage are: * Intuitive collage bypasses our censoring mind and can surprise us with new information about our inner life. * It provides a "symbolic release" of emotions, even if we are not yet conscious of what they are. * Collage can help us to "meet" and accept the inner parts of ourselves that we do not normally express from our socialized self. * It expresses the various aspects of our personality in visual form, helping us to understand, organize and sort out our "inner landscape" so that we can witness it compassionately. * The imagery and colors in an intuitive collage can reveal emotions more powerfully than verbal self-expression. We can FEEL imagery on nonverbal levels. About me Hi, I'm Valentina - an artist, Creative Art Therapist, yoga, dance, and pilates teacher. Originally from Latin America, I've lived in New York, London, and now Barcelona for a while. I draw inspiration from traveling and sharing the art-making process with people to help them expand their creative potential. As an artist and teacher, I've traveled the world and always carry color pencils and a block to socialize in creative ways! I believe that each one of us is inherently creative and infused with the gift of imagination to shape our experience into creative expression.

Mental Health, how do you understand it? How can you improve it? How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself. Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went? Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence? Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp. This group is hosted by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
