Repair Your Broken Heart
In this online painting journey of repairing our broken heart we will pick up the broken pieces and glue them together with our tears to make it whole and beautiful again.
Using the metaphor of Kintsugi, an ancient Japanese art of gold pottery repair technique, we will develop a deeper understanding that each broken piece of our life story is valuable and together they make us a beautiful human being.
Let’s embark on a healing journey from broken to beautiful by embracing our grief.
“The tears of the world are a constant quantity. For each one who begins to weep somewhere else another stops. The same is true of the laugh.” Samuel Beckett
Exploring old stories that broke our heart and honoring the tears we never cried.

We will pick up the pieces of our broken heart and glue them together with our tears to be whole again. We immerse ourselves in the beauty of the cracks as part of our authentic self.
