A lot of women I know (myself included) have been feeling that it’s time to commit to life at a new depth. I've spent a lifetime studying voice and expression and I know they are a direct channel to our creative source. So here's what I'm offering to support us all!• Over the course of two afternoons (June 23 & 24), we'll take time to slow down and connect with the essential being in each of us. • I'll guide us in simple exercises to help us recognize more of who's really there, in each other and in ourselves.• Through guided play with sound and movement, we'll evoke the unique creative spirit in each of us.You can walk away from this weekend feeling seen, heard, and empowered to be yourself, whether that means starting a business or speaking your truth to your partner, communing quietly with nature or running for public office. The form your expression takes is unique to you, and naturally evolves over time.I’m committing to life at a new depth and I invite you to come and join Water Hill location (near Hunt Park) TBA. $90 for both days; preregistration required. 734-663-8460. jessica@awakeningvoice.net http://awakeningvoice.net/
