  • This interactive workshop invites women to dream boldly and take meaningful steps forward. You’ll create your own Spring Board — a fresh twist on the traditional vision board — that captures not only what you want to manifest but also what you’re ready to take action around. Through guided reflection, creativity, and connection, you’ll identify this spring season’s priorities and walk away with a visual roadmap to help you move forward with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

  • Enjoy ear seeding, a gentle, non-invasive therapy rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Tiny adhesive seeds in gold, silver or crystal are placed on specific points of the outer ear that correspond with different systems in the body. Think of them as little “reminders” for your nervous system, quietly encouraging balance, calm, and flow even after you head home. The magic of ear seeds is they work on both the body and the mind. While you relax and breathe, these subtle points are stimulating areas connected to stress relief, hormonal balance, digestion, sleep, and emotional ease. It’s a simple yet powerful way to help your body release what it no longer needs, while gently opening space for clarity, calm, and vitality long after the session ends.

    Leader: Kristin Gauthier, Women’s Health Integrative Practitioner

  • Lose yourself in the captivating music and movement of Middle Eastern dance in this empowering and energizing belly dance class. From sharp & percussive to soft & fluid, you will learn some of the basic movements that make up the foundation of this dance form.

    Belly Dance is studied and performed by women of all backgrounds and ages. Not only is it a beautiful art form and means of self-expression, it also increases flexibility and helps you to achieve grace, poise, balance and coordination.

  • Immerse yourself in deep relaxation as Reiki energy healing blends with the soothing vibrations of a sound bath. This powerful combination helps balance your energy, release emotional blockages, and restore inner peace. Allow the healing frequencies of sound to guide you into a meditative state while Reiki supports your body’s natural ability to heal. Perfect for those seeking clarity, calm, and energetic renewal.

At Board & Brush Creative Studio, the goal is to turn you into a “DIY master” by educating you to understand and appreciate the beauty of raw materials—the wood, the knots, the color variations and the simple imperfections that will make your project unique. We will guide you to make your personalized wood sign look as though it has been with you for years—like a vintage heirloom.

Brush and Board works with top graphic designers from all over the country to provide farmhouse, vintage designs that will adorn your walls for years to come. In addition, our custom stencil process allow crafters to personalize their pieces with surname, monogram, the year of your special event or the names of your beloved children … the possibilities are endless and design choices are expansive.

Testimonials & Reviews

  • JODI BLASE

    “Jodi’s sound bowl healing and reiki session was absolutely out of this world. I’ve never experienced anything like it. The vibration of the bowls resonated throughout my body providing me with a deep and profound sense of energy clearing and restoration and reset. The calm and centeredness that I felt afterwards was incredible. The sound bowls shifted energy that was resistant to shifting with any other mode of energy work. I HIGHLY recommend having a session with Jodi!”

    -Suzanne R.

  • KRISTIN GAUTHIER

    “I went to a pop-up event for ear seed acupressure, my mother and I both had a wonderful time. Kristin was great at explaining the history of acupressure and ear seeds, its benefits, what to expect and was extremely patient with everyone that attended. We left feeling so relaxed and will definitely return.”
