SUMMARY:Managing Your Nervous System—Three Sessions with Jane Austin (via Zoom)
DESCRIPTION:In this three session workshop beginning on May 9 and continuing on May 23 & June 13\, we’ll explore how to find peace\, calm\, and balance\, especially in changing and chaotic times. Under the wise guidance of Jane Austin\, we’ll learn some simple tools and practices that can help. When the nervous system gets activated\, it can become over-stimulated. Learn about how trauma and stress affect your body\, as well as tools to use when stressed and ways to restore calm and balance. This workshop is a personal growth group for those interested in learning about their own nervous systems. Participants must commit to all three sessions. \nIn this workshop\, you will learn about: \n\nTypes of trauma\nNeurological effects of trauma/stress\nBodily signs of threat response and traumatic stress\nThe Autonomic Nervous System: its parts\, its job\, when to control it and/or when to manage it.\nGetting to know and understand your own Autonomic Nervous System\nThe Window of Tolerance: its importance and how to manage it\nTools to help you manage your Nervous System\n\nCost: $85 \nLeader: Jane Austin is a coach\, spiritual director\, and somatic experiencing practitioner (SEP). Jane has been working as an SEP since 2011 in many different settings. Learning how to manage her nervous system has been a life changer for Austin. Following her 2008-2011 training with Peter Levine’s Trauma Healing Institute\, the lens through which she sees her own and others’ behaviors has changed radically. Austin has spent years helping individuals and groups\, including bomb squads and other military base units\, work on addressing their PTSD. \nContact: RCWMS\, 919-683-1236\, info@rcwms.org\, or Jane Austin\, jaustinsd@msn.com. \nRegistration below includes all three sessions.

SUMMARY:Approaching Intuitive Collage in 3 Steps with Jeannette Brossart (via Zoom)
DESCRIPTION:You might ask yourself how making a collage can be intuitive and organized at the same time. Artist Jeannette Brossart uses collage as a creative jumpstart for making other art and is always surprised and inspired by the results. Since she doesn’t like to draw and paint\, she keeps a collage journal. Her “anything goes” intuitive process provides her with an abundance of questions and possibilities: where to start\, what to use first\, what does she feel like doing.  Using a 3-step framework makes it easy to adapt to your own artistic and creative strengths. For example\, Jeannette has created pages and pages with just images and text from National Geographic magazines. This workshop will encourage participants to use papers full of color and texture that might be sitting on your desk\, bits and scraps of treasures you can’t bear to part with\, or parts of your own journal musings or letters from others. \nJoin Jeannette Brossart for some collage fun; she will be working in real time alongside you. This class will spend some time on material selection. Please have magazines\, paper scraps\, etc. available. You don’t have to cut anything out ahead of time\, we recommend making copies of any materials you do not want to damage. After the material selection process\, we’ll move on to assembly/composition and then reflection/sharing as desired. \nMaterials needed:  \nWide variety of images/text: magazines (OLD NAT GEOS are great for this! scrap papers\, ephemera\, repurposed art\, journal pages\, newspaper clippings\, etc. \nTIP: make copies if you do not want to use originals! \nAdhesive and applicator:  I prefer Mod Podge\, but most white PVA/dry clear glues will work if you water them down. Foam or wide paintbrush will work OK for glue. \nBase item to stick to: wood\, cardboard\, or double page thickness in an art journal works too. \nRecommended extras: wax paper\, scissors\, baby wipes for hands/glue drips \n** we won’t be using wet media like paint\, marker\, etc. in this class\, but you can modify to add BEFORE the top layer of Mod Podge as you like. \nLeader: Jeannette Brossart is a professional mosaic artist\, public artist\, and teaching artist in Durham\, NC. Creative reuse is important to her and is reflected in her work which can be viewed at www.mothernaturemosaics.com \nCost: $45 \nRegister below. \nRegistrants will receive a Zoom link in the automated ticket confirmation

SUMMARY:Ministry of Black Women's Self Care\, May - with Kim Gaubault (via Zoom)
DESCRIPTION:Kim Gaubault recognizes that self-care is often the component that remains a form of intervention (after the break or the medical emergency) rather than a preventative measure. When we allow our bodies\, minds and/or spirits to break down in the course of doing this work\, we are not only putting ourselves at risk but we are putting at risk the integrity of the work for which we are laboring. This work is a work of self-love\, communal love\, Womanist Ethicism\, it is multi-generational\, multicultural and is not finite\, but is instead as infinite as the beauty in the divinity that is Blackness. Come and share in this life’s work! This program is specifically designed to offer practical tools for everyday self-care to Black women-identified individuals doing all forms of ministry\, in church and community. \nMay 18: Tell Me Something Good: Celebrating Small Victories! \nLeader: Kimberly Gaubault (McCrae) is an intentional lover of humanity and actively lives the self-care life about which she teaches and advocates. Her personal philosophy of interpersonal interaction is\, “If I’ve not positively influenced someone everywhere I’ve gone\, I’ve not walked in my purpose.” \nCost: $10\, $25\, or $40 per session. Choose the price that fits your budget. \nRegister  below. \nRegistrants will receive a Zoom link in the automated ticket confirmation.
