BUILDING CREATIVE STRENGTH

  • VISTA HOUSE HOLLYWOOD HILLS (map)

A breathwork and meditation session led by award-winning filmmaker and meditation coach Michael Collins, focused on creative recovery and resetting in community. When the world feels uncertain, it can be hard to stay connected to our work and ourselves. This session offers a pause — for the nervous system, for creative clarity, and for the relationships that sustain us. Finding creative grounding is essential to sustaining impact without burning out. This is a space for filmmakers and artists navigating demanding projects or difficult seasons to step back, take a breath, and reconnect to what’s essential: community.

We’ll close with tea and time to mingle in the garden.


Space is limited - please RSVP as soon as possible.

Exact address provided upon confirmation.
