Highly sensitive, complex, and intense people are prone to getting trapped in a vicious cycle: We acutely feel creative anxiety, so we avoid our creative practice hoping to protect ourselves from stress, but in so doing, we deprive ourselves of a source of deep nourishment that can strengthen our ability to navigate the stresses of life.

TOPICS WILL INCLUDE:

• Understanding that anxiety arises from the same deep sensitivity that gives you your creativity

• Learning to have a fruitful relationship with creative anxiety so that it doesn’t shut you down

• A step-by-step process for transitioning into and out of our creative work with greater ease

Join us for this interactive conversation about how to cultivate the quality of presence you need to thrive as you create your work and your life!

BONUS MATERIALS:
