Session 1: Surrender 

Shadow works: Grif

This group session is a sacred invitation to explore acceptance as pathways to inner balance and trust in life’s unfolding. Where surrender is understood not as passivity, but as a conscious act of listening to the unconscious and allowing transformation to occur. The session invites participants to step away from control and enter into a symbolic dialogue with their inner world.

The session will unfold organically, honoring the rhythm and emotional needs of the group, and allowing space for presence, silence, and intuition.

Session Structure:

• Opening & Grounding (30 minutes)
  We begin with a welcoming circle and a guided meditation, designed to soften the body, quiet the mind, and open a safe inner space. Breath, stillness, and intention will support a sense of connection—both within and with the group.

• Creative Ritual (1 hour)
  Through a guided art-making practice, participants will explore surrender using colors, shapes, allowing symbols to arise from the unconscious. The creative process is held as a ritual rather than a task, supported by soft music, warm tea and biscuits, and an atmosphere of care and presence. No artistic skill is required, we emphasis is on authenticity, not aesthetics.

• Integration & Sharing (30 minutes)
  The session closes with a time for integration, where participants may share their experience with the group or privately, according to their personal needs. Silence is also welcomed, honoring what wishes to remain unspoken.

This session offers a gentle container for self-connection, emotional release, and spiritual reflection. Allowing art to become a bridge between the inner world and the greater flow of life.
