| Dream Yourself Awake | If dreams are messages from the unconscious, then working with them can yield amazing results. When you know how to effectively use these powerful experiences, great progress can be made in the process of awareness, insight and self-actualization. |
| Plan(t) Your Mental Health | Create with us a plan(t) for bettering your mental health by exploring the intersection of mental health and wellness with the love of growing plants at home. This hands-on workshop will provide a plant for you and discuss ways how caring for plants can improve your cognitive function, introduce you to beneficial microbes in soil, and speed up recovery from mental fatigue. Plants help us to be more mindful and reconnect with nature indoors. |
| Embracing Your Authentic Self: Navigating Coming Out with Confidence | Coming out is a process of understanding, accepting, and valuing your sexual orientation and gender identity.

This workshop will take you on the journey that is coming out and its various challenges and expands on ways to support and care for those on their coming out journey. |
