Tracy offers many different kinds of workshops for adults on Salt Spring Island in beautiful British Columbia, Canada.
Workshop Offered are:
The Sanskrit word Mandala means "Sacred Circle" In this workshop we will survey the historical context of mandalas and look at the modern day benefits of working with and making mandalas such as relaxation, grounding, wholeness, insight and creative expression.
Runes were originally symbols of early Germanic and Nordic alphabets. We will read the runes, explore their history, their meanings and their Divine power.
Writing in a journal helps document a passage through time, a healing journey, and provides an historical reflection upon ones life. To draw, paint, collage and colour as well in your journal brings joy, peace, insight, depth and understanding.
Using dialogue, metaphor, symbolic interpretation and imagery you will learn how to interpret and work with your dreams in creative and effective ways.
Using the fun "Creative Intuition Game" developed by Tracy Harrison, learn how to listen to the voice inside. Dip into the wealth of guidance and knowledge your Intuition has to offer and make clear decisions.

We will make our own full set of runes from clayor wood and expand into more complicated readings of the runes, their history, meaning and Divine power will be explored.
The Fire, Wind, Water and Earth have so much to teach us. Each weekend in this series we venture through these teachings making art and using dialogue, metaphor, and symbolic interpretation to bring our personal teachings forward. Then we dance and transform.
While making beautiful dolls from a variety of materials we will explore our
female relationships including those with ourselves.
