Seeling Sanctuary hosted part one of a five part workshop series for the first time! The focus of this series is addiction. The 12 Steps of Recovery Through the Healing Arts. The workshop series is designed to help people go inward a little more and interpret addiction and recovery from the both sides of their brain and integrate it into the neural network as a whole. This allows the subconscious to heal by allowing it to float to the surface so the conscious mind can begin to heal it. With permission, here is some of the artwork produced by the group.

Seeking Sanctuary supports the LGBTQ+ community. You can help support them, too. There is a much greater risk for safety, anxiety, depression and su***de among this population.

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, by Marsha Linehan, has a lot of tools available online to help you. These are adapted and shared to be used for some self-help. Times are tough right now. It is hard to find a therapist who is available. I am receiving 10 referrals a day, many of which I can't answer. It is heartbreaking. I was talking to my best friend this morning and she inspired me to do something helpful. I will post a helpful online tool at least once per week for you to review and, if you would like, comment and share your thoughts. I am setting these up as links since these are in .pdf format. Please let me know if the links are working or not. DBT can help you with behavior changes, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, self-soothing and mindfulness. First, I'd like you to identify what you would like to work on.
