Healing Arts practices
Letting our Hearts Speak Visually

None of my other art groups bring me to be this introspective. I wish I were more artistic, but LJ helps us move past the need to critique our work. The story is the message. 

~Donna, Seattle WA

​

heART journaling allows me to tap into the magic of the everyday. I don’t mean rabbit-in-a-hat, sleight-of-hand magic. I mean the kind of magic that can only be experienced in a safe, co-created space.

  ~Stann

​

The sheer beauty of someone creating and describing their experience in such a non-judgmental and vulnerable state creates compassion in me. Then I can feel some of that towards myself.  ~Elizabeth, Floyd VA

LJ brought their own vulnerability into the process, modeling a level of creating and sharing that encouraged us all. They know how to personalize and acknowledge the discomfort, not denying or trivializing but moving with and through whatever comes up. 

~Sheila,  Putney VT

​

​

The grief that I felt when I first saw and really internalized the reality of how I had been lied to all my life, is really painful and sad. Recognizing this as a loss is really important for anybody doing racial justice work with other White people. It allows the practitioner to feel and display compassion. LJ clearly has a lot of compassion for everyone that they meet.  

~Fran, Hanover NH

LJ provided an opening to a deeper, richer experience of

something that felt more eternal and, in that way, felt transformational.

​​

​LJ created a dynamic of tenderness, quiet pacing and presence. In every session someone's sharing would brighten or expand my sense of connection to that well of love.
