Peace On Earth Begins Inside


"Nothing can bring you peace but yourself". – Ralph Waldo Emerson

Wow... It's hard to believe we are writing the December update already! This year has been an incredible one that has only been possible because of you. A beautiful community is forming at Nectar and it brings us such joy to know the studio is warm and full of our painting friends.

A theme has started to develop during our Friday morning painting sessions: Learning to accept that which we cannot change. What we all seem to be finding out in our own way as we paint each week is how to just "let it be". Making friends with what is "up" and having the courage to just be with it instead of trying to change it in a way that seems pleasing to us. This is a huge step toward inner peace. When we cultivate inner peace we automatically begin to see things on the outside shift. We are able to look at the world with a fresh perspective and the world responds in kind.

We have several opportunities to paint this month. We will be painting every Friday in December, as well as Saturday morning Dec 8th. We would love to see you!

Wishing you peace this holiday season,
Steph and Jen
