"Transforming Trauma" workshop, April 1st led by pro-bono attorney and yoga instructor Bela Shah.
Through the titles and content of my work, I paint a narrative that explores the cyclical nature of healing -- sometimes there is reconciliation with the past, other times there is the feeling of being frozen in a single moment, and still in other moments there is absolute re-empowerment, achieved by channeling our energies into creating and sustaining a better self. - Nadia Janjua
