Balance
So much changes when we become mothers. Finding our balance in a whirlwind of changes and emotions, especially when we are faced with postpartum depression and/or anxiety, is a challenging process. Creatively explore areas in your life that need to be tended to, let go of, or set aside. Nurture yourself and find a center from which you can withstand the force of continual change. In this workshop, you and other new mothers who have experienced postpartum depression and/or anxiety will use creative expression to find areas in need of support and ways to feel calm in chaos. All materials will be provided
November 8, 2008-10 a.m.-12 p.m. at Nurture: 1614 NE Alberta St.
$10
With Mychelle Moritz, ATR-BC, LPC

Picking Up the Pieces
The experience of postpartum depression and/or anxiety can leave us feeling shattered. As we heal, we begin to pick up the pieces and create a new whole. In this workshop, those have experienced postpartum depression and/or anxiety will explore and nurture your process of reconnecting the pieces as you create a sculpture. As you work with the materials, the sculpture emerges, becoming a meaningful symbol of survival and inner self and becomes a tangible reminder of your innermost strengths. You will begin the process of integration and acceptance of your new identity in a safe and supportive environment. All materials will be provided.
