Hello everyone, and welcome to the ones that joined this space recently.
For those that are wondering what you are doing here :) this is a space where we collectively practice creativity and self expression through mindful painting.
This is a practice I've been tending to in the last 10 years of my life and I've been growing it recently through this community project.
This practice gives me a space to go when I feel overwhelmed, lonely, ashamed or anxious (or both). But let me be honest with you, this practice will not take away your loneliness, your anxiety or fear because, my dear, those will be there throughout your life time. But what this practice can help you with is learning how to make friends with them.
In this space you can explore these feelings by allowing yourself the time and space for yourself and your creative practice, even when not everything "it's alright".
I find this a true act of self-care and self-love. This creative space is a reminder that you are safe to do what you love (no matter what).
Upon these thoughts I invite you to Slow Down with me in the upcoming workshop:
Winter Ritual - Creative Sketchbook Practice
Monday, 22nd January 6.30-7.30 pm (UK time)
I hope to meet you virtually there, where the real magic happens.
Take care, Bea
