It’s so nice to be able to post some photos from our Heard classes again, even if they were taken from a screen. In this “Four Cups of Life” virtual arts class, Sharmila asked the residents of Friends of Guest House to let go of any negative words swirling inside of them – to visually pour out what no longer serves them, and then pour in positive words in replacement. A picture is worth 1,000 words, right? What do you think?

Our might Heard team had a virtual happy hour last week, and our poet Wendi led us through a group poem. What fun it was, and what a great way to connect. And of course, we all think it’s brilliant!
HAPPY HOUR
By Jane, Solveig, Alexa, Danielle, Nina, Sharmila and Wendi
Looks like a brown polar bear.
I want to binge watch
Sex and the City.
My golden retriever says
“enjoy your coffee.”
The dead-glass clock,
a sweet souvenir.
Through books I transport
to unknown places.
This laptop is full
of my great ideas.
The lamp lights the way.

What do you want your life to look like? Visualizing is such a first critical step, and our clients in the Community Readiness Unit (those getting ready for release) at the Arlington County Detention Facility put such incredible thought and vision into their mandalas. We just had to share a few with you.
