August Empowerment Camp Update

Monday, August 12th, Self Image
Tahnee Laur & Bella Muir
We will discuss the connection between fashion and our moods. Our main focus will be to work on recognizing our true emotions in a digital world and how to best self care those feelings, reflect on our true self vs. media self, especially on having healthy boundaries with photo filters. We will decorate bandanas using fabric paint & stencils with affirmations and imagery to remind us to show love to ourselves in this moment, every moment no matter the mood.

Tuesday, August 13th, Self Love
Aly Long 10:45-11:45
We will explore Svadhaya or self inquiry from the yoga tradition and how this attunes us to knowing and expressing ourselves more freely. Our practice will include holding space for our unique self expression through asana, creating partner or group poses, dance and a guided meditation.

Shari Trnka 1:30-3:30
We will make heart garland or leis from upcycled wool scraps, cutting hearts and hand stitching the garland. While we work with our hands it’s a great opportunity to engage our hearts and share with each other about what it looks like (and feels like )to live from our hearts.

Wednesday Aug 14 Self Expression
Sue Forson 1:30-3:30
Creativity is essential to being fully alive and vibrant. Our creative process is a unique well of spirit and grace; the more we drink from it the more there is. We will create collages on shields and write a letter to our future selves and explore what happens when we let our creative muse take over

Thursday, July 15th, Self Care
Kelli Mae 10:30-11:30
Self care begins with self knowledge, and Yoga and mindfulness are the keys to learning about ourselves. We will use these practices to discover who we are, how we feel, what we like, and what we don't. A loving kindness (metta) meditation will complete our experience of attending to, accepting, and loving ourselves exactly as we we are.

Kirstin Eventyr 1:30-3:30
Together we will learn about using flower essences to support us to feel better about ourselves, boost our strengths and lean into our challenges. You will also have an opportunity to make your own flower essence and essential oil spray that you can take home with you!

Friday Aug 16th, Self Empowerment
Amazon of Olympia 1:30-3:30
Amazon of Olympia will be giving an inspirational speech on how you can tap into your own Superpowers. She also has a few fun Superhero themed things planned. Amazon of Olympia is a Superhero costumed character representing Wonder Woman.  She donates her time to various charities and local events.
