'Return to Self' April 11 Creative Retreat

There are seasons in life when I feel stretched thin, caught up in responsibilities, expectations and the steady hum of doing. Return To Self is an invitation to pause, to come home to yourself.

This one-day immersive retreat weaves together art and writing in a gentle, guided experience designed to help you express what has been held inside, release what no longer serves you, and reconnect with your voice and your vision for your life.

Throughout the day, you will:

·        Create two meaningful art pieces to take home
·        Write two reflective pieces that give language to your inner world
·        Experience guided creative sessions supported by music
·        Engage in optional sharing circles
·        Enjoy quiet writing time for deeper reflection

No artistic or writing experience is required. This is not about being “good” at art or writing. It’s about expression, release, permission to simply be.

All materials are provided, including art supplies and a journal you can take home with you to continue your reflections long after the day ends. Nourishing snacks and lunch are included, so you can stay present and cared for.

Hosted by Yevheniia Vasylkova, a visual artist and muralist, and Allissa Blondin, a writer and editor.
