Painting

Nature is familiar to us and we have her forms and being alive in common with her. Being active with and in nature brings about a joyful connection that will have a healing effect on body and mind. For instance painting with dirt that you have chosen yourself and have made into pigments give extra strength to the process of grounding you in your own base. Far away from stress and enforced life-style patterns the child in you is encouraged to play.

We will bring dirt from different parts of the world. That is not just dirt, it was carefully selected for this workshop.

And we invited you to bring your own dirt, a piece of the earth from that one spot that holds significance for you.

Sound healing

Together we will delve into the adventure of discovering your sound, colour and shapes by using your voice. The manner in which we do this can vary and it depends on the energy produced by the group at that moment. Discovering your own possibilities with your voice is healing and it takes you deeper into your being, it grounds you and provides space! Furthermore we work with improvisations resulting from our spontaneity.

The interconnectivity of these techniques allows you to feel “the earth beneath your feet” much faster.

This workshop is given in cooperation with Rita Suter, artistic therapist.
