Event Description:

I will begin the class by going over CVS community agreements. I will

introduce myself, quickly discuss the article, the goal for this activity is to unwind and

take care of ourselves, then I will begin to create our DIY masks. While we are doing the

facial masks I will ask participants what their favorite thing to do for self-care is. Also,

discuss how self-care may feel different, selfish, or weird because our families are always

working with little to no breaks. Hopefully, we can share them a few self-care ideas

with them. To me, music is therapeutic and is a form of self-care and expression so I will

ask them who their favorite artist is and why? Then for one-two minutes I will play a

meditating song and focus on our breathing. At the end, we will do roses, thorns, and

buds.
