In this personal empowerment session, we will create with a variety of materials and explore metaphors as symbols of centeredness and groundedness.  Principles of mindfulness will be woven into our time together.  We will experience the benefits of both metaphors and mindfulness and bring these tools into the unfolding year ahead!
