Nurturing Wellness through Discussions and Canvas Art

As we step into 2024, we are thrilled to introduce our new non-clinical art therapy series, Mindful Mondays. This monthly event will be hosted and taught by the talented epoxy artist, Leon Starkey, hailing from Detroit.

At Healing Not Hurting, we firmly believe that art is therapy. Numerous studies have shown that engaging in artistic activities can be a powerful tool for self-care and stress relief. Art can tap into our emotions, provide a creative outlet, and offer a much-needed escape from the daily pressures of life. It allows us to express ourselves, explore our thoughts and feelings, and find solace in the process of creating something beautiful.

During our Mindful Mondays, guests will have the opportunity to unwind and indulge in relaxation and self-care while painting a stunning wall art canvas. Whether you have prior experience or not, this event is open to all, fostering a welcoming and inclusive environment. Leon Starkey, with his expertise and passion for epoxy art, will guide participants through the process, encouraging them to tap into their creativity and embrace the therapeutic benefits of art.

In addition to the artistic aspect, Mindful Mondays will also feature wellness discussions on mindfulness, self-love, self-care, and other topics. These engaging conversations will provide a safe space for guests to explore and deepen their understanding of these important aspects of personal growth and well-being.

We are excited to kick off Mindful Mondays in February 2024 and invite you to join us on this transformative journey of self-discovery and healing through art. Embrace the power of creativity, nurture your mental and emotional well-being, and experience the therapeutic benefits that art has to offer. Be on the lookout for the announcement of our first session!
