Join us for a meditative and creative evening of plant life and self care with Latinx with Plants!

Latinx with Plants

***Wellness Wednesday evenings of mindfulness and self-care take place on third Wednesdays of the month at Latinx with Plants in Boyle Heights.***Join us on July 19 from 6 - 7:30 pm for our monthly Wellness Wednesday at Latinx with Plants. The session will begin with a short meditation offering loving-kindness for oneself and others. Next, we will create a drawing or print of a unique design inspired by Aztec speech glyphs, filling it with words, pictures, symbols, and colors of personal significance. The facilitator will guide us to recognize and calm any inner-critic voices, to offer kindness to ourselves as mistakes arise, and to practice listening and sharing about each other’s practices. No previous experience with art is necessary. Open to all, recommended for ages 15+. This program is a collaboration with UCLA Arts &amp; Healing. #﻿SHGWorkshops #WellnessWednesdayAbout the facilitator:Oliva Armas is an artist, educator, Chicanx community healing artist, and curator born and raised in East L.A.
