What is The Clay Way?
The Clay Way is a 2-hour retreat unlike anything else. You get to literally play with clay in a way designed to help you get unstuck, get clear, and get your groove back.
This hands-on ceramics experience invites you to discover the transformative power of clay to help you solve that problem you’ve been ruminating about and/or create your next big move. Playing with clay is a delightful way to relax. Once you’re feeling like a kid again, it’s easy to brainstorm possibilities you’ve never even considered.
What to Expect
- playful experimentation
- guided hypnosis
- exploring new clay techniques
- shaping your unique creative voice
- imaginative problem-solving
- mindful practice
- connection
- self trust
- a supportive environment
And yes, snacks & n/a drinks are provided (of course)
