InterPlay Medicine: Dancing with Depression Has a recurring blue mood gotten you down? Good news...you're not alone! Often, when we''re depressed the last thing we want to do is PLAY. Yet opposite action is one of the best ways to lift depression. We can play together in celebration and respect of our travels into, and through, the dark places. Let your creative spirit share its wisdom with other creative spirits. Or, just come and be nourished by the warmth of community. In this one-day class, we will explore using InterPlay forms to bring more grace and ease to our journeys with mood swings and depression. Julia McKay is a trained counselor, music educator and member of the WingIt! Performance Ensemble. Victoria Allen is a landscaper, educator and rogue cafe chaplain. Both are Interplay Leadership grads and have experienced healing with their own depression the Interplay way!!
