The Project starts with the idea of creating a concept to support women and children suffering from violence, giving them the opportunity to discover their abilities, to develop in a healthier environment to foster self-confidence.
Profits from this store are dedicated to create workshops and occupational therapy sessions, with the purpose of building skills that allow them to stand for themselves and get a dignified job to make a living.
In these workshops, they learn sensory development so they may feel through their senses and know they can have a better life quality:
Development of Smell – Creation of aromatic candles:
Through the scents, they can receive calming therapy and fight depression.
Development of Sight – Painting Workshop:
They will be able to change their mood through colors.
Development of Touch – Massage therapy with local stones, like obsidian:
Through touch with people, they will learn how a hug can give the feeling of calm by stimulating endorphins.
Development of Taste – Making of cookies and snacks:
They learn to develop their palate and receive stimulation through pleasant tastes.
Development of Hearing – Music therapy:
Music is a pain reliever and a means that can instill different sensations in us, such as peace and happiness.
