“I love a good repetitive craft I can work on while watching TV. Lately I’ve been finding hand sewing to be relaxing. I inherited these tattered quilt squares from my grandmother and decided to repurpose them. I just love how the sun shines through making them look like stained glass.” - Sarah B.

"One of my favorite coping skills is called counting colors. Essentially, whenever you're feeling overwhelmed, take a look around the room. Then count all of the items that are red, orange, yellow, and on. This distracts me enough to recenter myself, without being difficult to remember." -Ciera

Our therapist, Emma, shares an art mindfulness activity: "Choose a song. Listen and create a small art piece that reflects how the song makes you feel. There is no right or wrong way to do this. It's a gentle way to check in with yourself and promote mindfulness through present-moment awareness."

"Frida Kahlo was a disabled queer artist making art about her inner-world often from bed. Her art is vulnerable, and intimate. She added many personal elements into her art: her Mexican culture, political activism, and her pain. I love the idea of being our own muse." -Sydney, Art Therapist

The Spotted Rabbit team will be on-hand with our button maker for some hands-on art making under the shade of our tent while sharing all about what makes our brand of therapy unique. Hope to see you there!
