A Color,Clay and Word™ class
* a poem by Thich Nhat Hahn
In this complex world, the suffering is enormous. We try our best to help, but sometimes we grow discouraged. This workshop shares the poem that, for me, renews my practice.
For 19 years I have worked with this poem by Zen Master, Thich Nhat Hahn. It is at the heart of my Compassion Practice. For me, it is the essence of Truth. I have created an experiential workshop that allows this profound poem to enter the hearts of participants and open the doors to their compassion.
In this 4-hour workshop we will create an experiential sanga where the arts help us to realize deep mindfulness.
No prior experience with Zen or Meditation is required, yet experienced practitioners will find this workshop holds deep meaning and unfoldment.
$99
This will be the first workshop that I teach in Boulder, CO. Check back for time and location - it should be in late January 2012

Color,Clay and Word™ –
a personal exploration into
the soul of being
Melissa Penn facilitates this extraordinary Art-As-Meditation process that reveals the next step in a person’s soul evolution. Beginning with the power of the spoken and written word, Color, Clay and Word plunges each student into the realm of their subconscious.
There a secret message is revealed and the process begins. As the class progresses, the message is allowed to speak via different forms of art, and develops into a key question and a revealed answer that will fuel the student’s creative process far after the course is finished.
Melissa Ellen Penn, MA, SD is a highly trained Spiritual Director, shamanka, and ritualist. Her expertise promotes a safe and secure creative space where all are empowered to release the artist within. The course is suitable for beginners and also for advanced students. No prior art experience is necessary.
This is the core class of Color, Clay and Word. For more information about Melissa see:
