About the Event
Selfcare-shop for Healthcare Workers, Healers, Caregivers and Coaches, facilitated by Chrissandra Unger and Kim Nixon.
This is a day to relax and rejuvenate with sound and creation. No previous experience in the arts is required, just a welcoming spirit of receiving the day's gifts.
Chrissandra is a registered counsellor, expressive arts therapist, certified Biofield Tuner & sound healer in Nanaimo who has experience working compassionately with helping professionals in a group setting.
She will guide you in a relaxing sound healing treatment using Biofield Tuning and other instruments. After a nutritious and tasty lunch, you will be invited to open up to the playfulness in you - perhaps what you've been yearning for for some time.
After giving so much of yourself, enjoy some time giving back to yourself
🧡
Now is the time to bless your givings with a day of tuning into you.
F A Qs
What is Biofield Tuning?
Biofield Tuning is a sound healing modality using tuning forks around the body to calm and restore the nervous system.
What are the benefits of sound & tuning in a group setting?
When two or more people are together, we can feel each others’ energies, our “vibes.” Our systems know who feels comfortable to be around and who we would rather distance ourselves from.
Tuning together can help restore the noise in our own systems into harmony, and result in connection and coherence within ourselves and around others.
What is expressive arts therapy?
The heART of this multi-arts session is the arts: image making, music and/or sound, writing, & authentic movement - each step of the process amplifies our experience of our place in the world… a way of meaning-making. We often move between the different arts modalities to crystallize our experience, allowing the restoration of our playful self to emerge.
No previous art experience is necessary, only a curiosity for exploration.
Playfulness is Self Care! 🧡
You will be guided by Chrissandra in a gentle, relaxing and fun experience to tap into the playful Self.

A Sound Meditation Gift for You
Visualize yourself beside a stream laying on the soft earth... listen to its changing sounds as it flows by. Visualize BEING the stream, floating and meandering, feeling the body and mind letting go. Breathe…
I created this track with bowls, voice and other acoustic instruments to help soothe the nervous system and bring peace to mind and body... a great listen as you fall asleep.
What should I bring?
Please bring:
a yoga mat, pillow & blanket - or any similar item for your “nest”
Water bottle
notebook & pen
umbrella (if you’d like to explore outside)
you DON’T need to bring any previous experience in the arts… Only a curious spirit !
