I loved the positivity, the people, the support, the encouragement, the sharing of our stories. The reminders and resets that are necessary in this world. Carolyn as a leader was lovely, warm, caring, knowledgeable, full of ideas, clear in instructions re: the art, and flexible with what participants want and needs were.

REKINDLE, RETURN, AND RESTORE
Just beyond the fence.
I would like to introduce you to a new world, a world free of judgment, a world that spreads calm.
Take my hand and walk silently with me to the bottom of the garden, behind the fence where nobody goes.
Here, in the place where time and humans forgot, is where you can find yourself.
As you place yourself on the large rock, perfectly shaped just for you, close your eyes and surrender.
Stop, breathe, rest, and feel all the rock and this special place has to offer.
Calming, relaxing, and bubbling with life, your throne becomes your connection to the Earth on which you live, and so much more.
Silently, inhale the warm, gentle air that allows you to slowly forget about the other side of the fence.
Smell the freshness, the greenery, the blossom as the air fills your lungs with hope and peace.
Stop, rest, breathe, and feel the calmness spreading through and taking over your body and mind.
As you open your eyes, take in the wonder around you with a fresh new way of seeing, as if you have never seen before.
Notice the leaves of the protecting tree fluttering in the warm breeze above you, adding to the silence that you feel and hear.
Enjoy the kaleidoscope of colours as you experience each one, shade by shade, with new eyes as they fill your senses.
Stop, relax, breathe, and notice that you have company, that you are not alone, that you are being observed, and enjoy the quiet chatter of your companions.
Feel the warmth of the sun, as your companions cast shadows as they fly above and around you, looking for a safe observation point.
Sometimes, furred friends will hear their call, and they will catch your eye as they come to investigate who has come to the place behind the fence.
Enjoy the soothing sounds of the water as it passes by you, brushing and smoothing the stones as it flows towards its destination.
Observe and listen to how sometimes the water is in a hurry, sometimes it meanders on its way, but it is always moving forward.
Stop, relax, breathe, and watch as the beautiful, warming sun begins to take a bow after a show-stopping day.
Enjoy the beautiful colours it sends out to you, as an encore just before it goes for its well-earned rest, preparing for tomorrow.
Stand and slowly wander back towards the other side of the fence, noticing how much louder, brighter, and more beautiful everything appears.
Stop, relax, breathe, and thank all this beauty this world has offered you before stepping back onto the other side of the fence and home.
Carry this calm and peace with you, knowing the other side of the fence is always there, with so much to offer, whenever you are ready to go back.
