Art of Healing: Medallion Meditation Bowls

Description

A free, visual art program open to anyone in need of healing: patients, caregivers and survivors can all benefit from self-expression. In this month’s Art of Healing Workshop, we will create Medallion Meditation Bowls! Explore the symbolism of the circle and the bowl, and experience the simple joy of creating during this Art of Healing Workshop. We will craft beautiful meditation bowls made from colorful paper medallions in a color palette of your choosing. By taking a moment for self-care and focusing our attention on the repetitive motion of placing paper medallions, we will start to quiet and calm the mind in a way similar to meditation. Simple, repetitive activities like this give your brain the opportunity to return to the same movement instead of returning to unwanted thoughts. Once completed, your empty bowl will serve as a symbol for prosperity – ready to be filled with positive new ideas. No experience is necessary and all supplies are provided. Open to participants 16 and older. Class led by Kristin Heron from the Ormond Memorial Art Museum.
