In a society where we are accustomed to always getting everything right away, patience seems to have become an obsolete virtue. Yet patience is not just the ability to know how to wait and endure - the key is being proactive rather than passive. It becomes that essential mechanism we need when life confronts us with difficulties, from daily annoyances to serious problems. Patience is a form of wisdom that comes from accepting that things have their own time to mature. Procrastination often emerges when we feel pressured to get things "right away" or when tasks feel overwhelming. This workshop reveals how procrastination and impatience are two sides of the same coin - both driven by our discomfort with the natural timing of things. Through sand art, we learn to embrace the process rather than rushing toward outcomes. Cultivating patience is possible. We learn to stay anchored in our breath, especially in those moments where we feel we must immediately react to a situation or avoid it entirely. Learning to be with what is in that moment inside of us - in body, mind, heart - we drop judgment, expectations, and disappointments, instead trying to make friends with what is moving through us, knowing that it is only a moment of passage. Through sand art, we practice this allowing, discovering that steady progress feels better than rushing or avoiding. What You'll Discover: How to transform procrastination from avoidance into mindful pausing The difference between productive patience and passive waiting How to stay present with discomfort instead of rushing or delaying That each grain of sand - like each moment of life - has something to communicate if we listen How slow, creative work can heal our relationship with time and productivity This class is sponsored by Community Fund, Awards for All It is FREE and is aimed at adults, women, etnic minorities, any individuals from low-income background.
