A Gentle Journey

The Mandala – Mask-making workshop, led by the
talented artists and superb teachers Sally Allen and Beth
Powers, is an experience I won’t soon forget. The workshop
is great fun, but it’s also a unique opportunity for
peaceful contemplation and self-exploration in a charming
setting. Days later I still feel mentally and physically
refreshed, and smile every time I recall the gentle,
thoughtful way Allen and Power guided us through the
process. There really is something extraordinary about having a mask made of your face and then, in a warm, bright environment filled with beautiful music, taking a whole day to paint or decorate it. At the very least, it’s tremendously relaxing and enjoyable. For me, it was also surprisingly thought-provoking and somehow quite moving. Delightful and memorable – don’t miss this! |

It was amazing how well the somatic and art process
encounters complimented each other to gently lead me
through places inside I'd previously hit a wall with. Weeks
after the workshop, I am still gleaning insight from my
paintings! |

A Gentle Journey Within allows, nurtures, encourages
participants from any level of artistic knowledge to explore their
world through meaningful artistic experiences, in a safe studio
atmosphere. Thank you my friends for this incredible journey! |

I ponder the power of our gentle journey daily…it truly was
transformative... Have worked on a few more creations and feel as if
autumn will be a rich time. …I think there just aren’t words to say all that it meant to me. I treasure the deep love and acceptance that you both [Sally and Beth] emanated, while creating a truly safe haven for whatever arose. Thank you, thank you, thank you. |

If you’d like to grow, first as a person and secondly as an
artist, in a humanistic non-evaluative environment that is conducive
to self awareness, this is the place for you. Great Experience |

This journey feels like a multitude of hearts being opened and revealed---and joined. Sally and Beth have given us the gift of possibility of self—others—world—life. |
