Project Prayer Flag: My Green Women 2021 Project uses ART Wellness to expand our self-awareness and find new ways of relating and being with ourselves and in the world. A prayer flag is hope in action. It’s a method for people to connect their internal knowing with the universal sacred guidance available to them. People use canvas, fabric or paper to create their stated desire using images, words and color. It’s traditionally hung outside or it’s displayed in other places of personal significance. Active hope is about allowing for and perhaps trusting in the unknown outcomes. This project includes online and in-person workshops, videos, and community partnerships.
