In this virtual session, Stacey Perlin from Perlin Foundation for Wellness will facilitate a creative wellness exercise that helps release the ho-hum of 2024 and embrace the changes of 2025. She teaches mindfulness and creative problem-solving skills on this Mind/Art storytelling adventure. You’ll enjoy this online experience if you’re feeling up or down, and particularly well if you’re feeling sideways.
