Highlights of the First Quarter of 2026

By Misch Beck | Healing Arts for Adults Facilitator

This year we chose to do an Intuitive Vision Board for intentions for the new year.  This is different because we are spending 20 minutes quickly choosing images.  Not with our brain but with our bodies and hearts.  Then we sift through them and choose the ones that most resonate and create the collage.  Afterwards we write and it is the finished picture that speaks to us of what it means.  If you really do this intuitively (with your thinking brain out of it) something with great personal meaning will appear.

One of our participants favorite part of our day is meditation and Qi Gong practices led by my work partner Susan.  This gives all of us a time to just relax and sink into ourselves and whatever we bring to the day.  It also allows us to get our energy moving and tune into our bodies.

We did a Self-Love piece that is a mixed media process.  On ripped up pieces of paper we write down things about ourselves in these categories:  I'm so proud of you..., You are such a good..., You deserve the best..., Something about my body I love is...  Then we glued the papers on our substrate, created a heart out of scraps of paper for the center of the piece and then painted the background.
