Tickets $35.00
Journaling and morning pages are two of the most powerful ways to create deeper self-understanding and meaningful change in your life.
It’s possible to power-up your writing and open more energetic fields within your psyche by adding an expressive art aspect to your journals.
Join Dr.A. and clinical psychologist Dr.Cynthia McKenzie in a workshop exploration of
Art Journaling and how to incorporate this creative and fun approach to your daily writing practice.
Art journaling is the invitation and opportunity to include color, form, symbols, images, and mixed media (paint, pastels, pencil, collage, photos) with your writing. It offers another creative way to tap into dreams, the unconscious, archetypes, and mythology.
Discussion and instruction will include the Japanese calligraphy practice of creating daily Ensōs to reflect and illuminate the state of your psyche, as well as the incorporation of ancient symbols, text, drawings, and much more, revealing art as a key that can open a deeper understanding of the archetypes that are influencing your life.
Join us for a fun and creative workshop that invites you to embrace the fact that you don't have to be "an artist" to make artistic expression a powerful tool in your personal growth.

Gathering Your Materials
You don't need to buy anything special for our time together.
Before we meet, spend a little time wandering through your home and gathering whatever calls to you.
Bring a journal or some sturdy paper, along with anything you enjoy making marks with—colored pencils, crayons, markers, a child's watercolor set, paints...whatever you already have.
Then look for things you might tear, cut, layer, or collage: colored or patterned papers, old greeting cards, magazines, bits of letters, newspaper, wrapping paper, photographs, ticket stubs, scraps of fabric—anything that catches your eye.
Don't worry about whether something is “artistic” or whether you know what you're going to do with it.
If you're drawn to it, bring it.
You'll also want scissors and a glue stick or other simple adhesive.
Most importantly, please don't go out and buy a collection of expensive art supplies. This isn't about having the right materials.
It's about becoming curious about what you choose—and what might want to emerge from them.
The 2026 Village is here!
Each gathering will explore different folk tales, myths, goddesses, and archetypes from world mythology. Together we’ll discover how these ancient mythologies offer new perspectives on issues that concern Regent women today. As Regent Women—aged 45-70— we’re living in the most powerful stage of our lives. During these gatherings, in the company of women, we support each other and offer insights into making the most of our Regent years.
What can we learn from this? Where is our power, and how should we wield it? Join me in exploring the ancient hopeful truths and powers that live within the myths of the universal experience of being a woman.
Dr. A. is a cultural mythologist and women’s coach. Connect with Dr. A., and like-minded women in monthly inspirational conversations held online about the big picture of being a woman in these times.
As women have done for millennia, we'll gather at the well (ours will be virtual) to support each other and find wisdom, insight, and clarity in uncertain times.
Enter the Women's Wisdom Village and:
-
Experience new ways of understanding what we are going through today, from the wisdom in ancient myths and stories.
-
Explore the legacy of wisdom from the deep universal experiences of being a woman.
-
Broaden and deepen our thinking about our outer and inner worlds.
-
Create a deeper connection to ourselves and with each other.

Ritual, Guided Visualization, Journaling Reflection, and sharing
We can emerge from this uncertain time with a new story to tell about ourselves and our world and a new vision for our lives, our families, our communities, and our world.
