Certified in Soul Guiding and Soul Mentoring
Certified in Spiritual Direction, Spiritual Formation, and Companioning 
 
“WE ARE ALL ARTISTS” Kat will help us explore our own personal artistry, no matter what form it takes. She’ll also explore what it means to take ego and the quest for mastery out of our artistic expression, freeing us to embody our spirituality through our art. Through her own experiences with music and poetry, she will share about the fruits of art available to us all.

Session 3: Crayon Therapy

Arlene Winslow, Red Bluff Art Association Board

Arlene will share her journey of recovery from trauma with a support group which spent 20 minutes each session making crayon drawings depicting nightmares, emotions, fears, etc. Creating visual images is therapeutic, creating connections and understanding.

Session 4: Prayer & Meditation "Therapy"
