Imagine entering a softly candlelit room. The scent of warm chai fills the air. Landscapes of sound humming in the background. You settle in, surrounded by kindred spirits and begin to draw not to perform, not to be perfect but to soften and return to what’s true to you.
🌀 In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the heart meridian flows directly to the little finger. When we draw, we are literally channeling our heart’s energy onto the page.
If you have been feeling stuck in your head lately and craving a space to reconnect to this space, join us for our next Mindfulness in Drawing Workshop. This isn’t about creating a masterpiece, it’s about presence and feeling into the stirrings of the heart and how it wants to express.
For this special session, we will be creating and moving through the elements within and without. Together, we’ll explore experimental art-making and collaborating with Sally from the Collective Sound Sanctuary to immerse and be inspired by our internal landscapes . She will be bringing all her beautiful instruments that invoke the different elements and we will use sound to be inspired by the marking we put down on paper.
Part creative workshop, part mindfulness ceremony, each session begins with a grounding orientation and meditation. This is your invitation to listen deeply to your breath, your body and your intuitive creative wisdom and creative feminine spirit. This workshop is an invitation to nurture and tend to your creative portal, the womb. Through guided heart–womb breathing practices, we create space to cultivate connection between these two powerful centres. From this place of inner listening, we access our source, drawing inspiration from within, watering the wellsprings of our vitality through ritual, creativity and sisterhood.
Rooted in play and guided by curiosity, this mindfulness in drawing workshop offers space to explore art as a joyful, embodied practice. Blending experimental mark-making with somatic awareness, we focus on presence over product, process over perfection and authentic expression over expectation.
From there, we draw not just with our hands, but with our breath, our senses and our feelings.
What to expect:: 🌀 An elemental journey through drawing & sound :: A grounding orientation to drop into your intuitive space :: Experimental art-making ✨ Warm chai and deep creative nourishment
🌿 No art experience necessary just a willingness to explore, be curious and let go of perfection. It’s not about the end result, but the process and inner journey.
