As one year comes to a close and another begins, we’re invited to pause — to feel into what our hearts are truly ready to call forward.
Join Leah Grace and Sarah Simon for an evening of embodied intention setting & creative expression. You’ll learn to weave creativity into your daily rhythms as a sacred ritual—an expression of intention and devotion that aligns you with the vision you’re calling forth for 2026.
Leah will gently guide you through somatic practices to connect with your body’s wisdom and clarify the visions that want to unfold in the year ahead. Through breath, movement, and guided meditation, you’ll sense your intentions not just as ideas, but as living energy within you.
From this grounded place, Sarah will lead you into an intuitive art journaling experience — where your intentions take form through color, texture, and collage. No art experience is needed. You’ll be supported to play, explore, and express freely.
Come as you are. Bring a journal and your open heart. We’ll have lots of art supplies on hand, but it may be helpful to bring specific photos or images that support your intentions.

Workshop Facilitators
Leah Grace
Leah Grace is the founder of the Somatic Wisdom Institute, where she guides women in reconnecting with their bodies, intuition, and the wisdom of the earth. With over 25 years of experience as a Somatic Therapist, Coach, and Embodied Leadership facilitator, Leah helps women who have done deep therapeutic work move into a new threshold of healing — one rooted in authenticity, rest, and embodied truth. Her work integrates modern somatic trauma practices with earth-based wisdom traditions, inviting presence, compassion, and deep remembrance of the intelligence that lives within.
Sarah Simon
Sarah is a devoted heart-tender, creatrix, and a solid presence of welcome and deep belonging. Walking the path of long-term recovery, her life is a testament to healing—mending ancestral wounds, breaking generational cycles, and planting seeds of love and resilience for those yet to come. Art journaling has been a deeply healing practice in Sarah’s own journey. Early in her recovery, words were hard to find, so she began making gratitude lists with gesso, collage and a variety of ink. This daily practice became a ritual of devotion and a way to give voice to her inner world.
