Wanting Without Knowing: Creative Wellness as a Practice of Introspection and Embodiment is a one hour somatic and creative wellness experience exploring how creativity can support mental health, emotional regulation, and self connection, especially during moments of uncertainty, transition, or longing.

Rooted in deep listening to the body and our relationships with one another, this session invites participants to experience creative wellness not as a talent or outcome, but as a practice of slowing down, noticing, and being present with what is here, even when clarity has not yet arrived.

Through brief reflections, guided somatic check ins, and accessible creative practices, participants will explore what it means to want something without fully knowing what it is, and how the body, imagination, and creative expression can offer insight without forcing answers. This experience is especially resonant for Black communities navigating stress, grief, change, and the ongoing pressure to have everything figured out.

The session is inspired by Black speculative fiction writers and cultural thinkers, offering space to pause, reflect, and explore together. No artistic experience is required, only curiosity and a willingness to show up.
