Sacred Pause — An Art Therapy Circle ✨
A 6-week virtual space to slow down, breathe, and create without pressure.

This group is for adults who are feeling overwhelmed, navigating transition, caregiving, grief, or simply longing for a gentler rhythm. Grounded in art therapy principles, Sacred Pause is spiritual-but-not-religious, trauma-informed, and inclusive.

There’s no expectation to “be good at art.”
No performance.
Just intentional slowing, emotional safety, and making marks as a way of listening to your body and nervous system.

🗓 Mondays | 6:00–7:30pm
🖥 Virtual | Adults 18+
📅 Feb 9 – Mar 16
💳 Most insurances accepted + private pay available

Led by Jazmin Crittenden, MA

Reminders for 2026 🤍

As we step into a new year, may we release the pressure to be perfect and instead hold space for grace.
It’s okay to start over.
It’s okay to feel deeply.
It’s okay to ask for help.
It’s okay to grow, rest, change, and take your time.

Wherever 2026 meets you, you are worthy, capable, and not alone.

2025🤍

As we close out this year, we’re holding so much gratitude.

From meaningful milestones—like opening our doors to the community through Make Art About It and advocating for art therapy in Minnesota—to sacred moments of growing our team and creating together, this year has reminded us that God is faithful in every step.

We’re entering the new year with open hands, committing our work to the Lord, and trusting Him with what’s ahead—continued healing for our clients, growth for our community, and guidance in all we do.

Thank you for being part of our story. We can’t wait to see what He has in store. ✨

“Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established.” — Proverbs 16:3

With everything going on in the world, it can feel so heavy and so dark. This season, I’m choosing to believe that love still matters—and that how we show up for one another truly counts.

The holidays can hold so many mixed emotions. Joy and excitement show up… but so can grief, loneliness, and the ache of missing someone you love. If this season feels heavier than you expected, you’re not alone.

This Saturday, we’re creating a space where you can slow down, breathe, and gently reconnect with what’s going on inside. Through creativity, reflection, and supportive community, we’ll make room for both the joy you carry and the heaviness you’re holding.

If you need a place to process, remember, or simply rest — we’d love for you to join us.
