Mariposas

Aprendiendo sobre el teatro ✨

Do you remember when you had your first theater class? For some of our mariposas this was their first.

What do you need?
The 2020 Mariposas sessions have been centered on the strengthening and nurturing of our community of youth and parents. 2020 self-care begins with self-compassion– being able to empathize with your own struggles, feel, reflect AND ACT to nurture and seek care for yourself. Loving yourself unconditionally should not be a radical idea. Try it. ❤️

Las sesiones de Mariposas en el 2020 han estado centradas en el fortalecimiento y enriquecimiento mental y espiritual de nuestra comunidad de jóvenes y padres. Cuidarnos a nosotras mismas este año comienza con un gran sentido de compasión por nosotras mismas– con poder empatizar con nuestras propias luchas, sentir, reflexionar Y ACTUAR para proveernos nutrición mental y espiritual, y buscar cuidado cuando lo necesitamos. Amarte a ti misma incondicionalmente no debe ser una idea radical. Trata. ❤️
