This workshop works with simple lyric writing prompts in which participants are encouraged to write lists by tuning into their senses, colors around them, tastes, aromas, sounds, etc. This is a highly effective and enjoyable workshop, as each participants' contributions are woven into a song creation.
Peace & Presence is a Columbia SVR initiative that introduces diverse holistic wellness tools and techniques for survivors of sexual trauma to experience and adapt to their own wellness needs. The program envisions a space where survivors feel held, understood without having to explain themselves, and given space to breathe and connect with one another in profoundly spiritual and experiential ways. Through its multi-faceted approach to mindfulness, movement and nurturing of one’s body, this program hopes to aid survivors to recognize and cherish their innate capacity to transcend trauma while being connected to a caring community of allies.
