Use your spirit stick as a visual wellness affirmation, a reminder of the intentions cultivated by you throughout your stay. This is a fun hour of simple creative expression designed for all levels of makers where you will wrap brightly colored strings and cloth around a tree branch.

Art Rx: Studies show creative expression helps maintain our immune systems and that art is clinically proven to reduce stress, elevate mood, and lower blood pressure. No judgement on the outcome; let yourself enjoy the process!

Debbie Levine, originally from NY, is an Austin based lawyer-turned-artist who has been collaging and making art and facilitating classes for more than a decade.  She was drawn to the creative process years ago, intuitively, as a means of relieving stress while studying for the NYS Bar exam.  She is a playful thinker and a self-taught artist; she continues to study art technique along with the relationship between wellness, intuitive collage making and the creative process.  Her diverse experience, enthusiasm for what she does, ability to connect and bring out each participants’ natural abilities make her classes both informative and enjoyable.
