Ouroboros (u-ro-bor-us)

In this class we will work with the energetics of anxiety and depression- emotions that often trap us in the loop of negative, circular thinking. This circular thinking calls to mind the ouroboros, the ancient, circular symbol of a serpent chomping on its own tail. We will design and decorate our own personal ouroboros; giving us the opportunity to identify and name our negative ‘ouroboros thinking’ patterns. We will also bring to mind positive thoughts, phrases, colors, decoration that can replace our ‘ouroboros thoughts’ with reminders of self-love and encouragement. This will be a hanging, 3-dimensional design.

Participants are asked to bring a notebook/journal as well as any quotes/phrases they find supportive and encouraging. These can be used as part of the collage material if desired.
